Michael, thanks for reaching out to Amanda on this one. As with everything in investing, legal and life in general, it's important to discuss within the context of your specific details and situation. The first question we're looking to answer here is if the tiny home is Personal Property or Real Property (real estate). From my research there are 2 primary qualifying parameters and one consideration: 1. MOVABLE: There are different types of tiny homes, what classifies a movable property is if it is fixed and anchored to the ground/foundation. If you're looking to take Sec 179 and auto bonus dep, you'll want to look into something like this boxhouse tiny home that does not require concrete foundation or anchors as it is small and heavy enough to be anchored via its own weight. https://www.boxhouse.com/videos/ (see installation video) 2. LAND OWNERSHIP: additionally if you do not own the land that the property is on, the tiny home will be considered personal property. 3. STATE/COUNTY: Most states follow the above guidelines and allow you to do a Personal to Real Property conversion if the two above conditions are met (ie. the tiny/mobile home is affixed to the ground and the land is owned by the tiny home owner) In the case of the tiny home that I am purchasing, we do not own the land and they are movable.

We're hosting a session later today to talk through the deduction opportunity!

Sorry everyone I've been bad at replying as I'm in Florida relaunching one of my properties. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OWS8Ac5LbBATlVspgtcs077n98oGKsTKHIF0pMAlTHI/edit?gid=1958395996#gid=1958395996 I built a calculator to determine tax savings and how much downpayment you'd need on this strategy

What's the down payment you're looking for on this one?
