​
Q: Is furniture for my Airbnb tax deductible?
A: Yes, furniture—and any costs to repair existing furniture—are deductible expenses for your Airbnb. This also applies to amenities and appliances you provide for guests, such as toasters, TVs, bed sheets, and towels. For more expensive items, these typically count as assets that depreciate over time. However, if an item costs less than $2,500, you have the option to deduct it fully as an expense in the purchase year, which can significantly reduce your taxable income for that year. This information is intended as a general guide. For specific advice tailored to your situation, please consult a professional tax advisor.
​
Q:Do you only design vacation rentals?
A: Absolutely not! My passion is designing homes where families can create memories, whether that's in a vacation rental or their own personal home. My 'why' stems from the belief that time is precious, and I aim to create the perfect backdrop for families to make memories together.
