Question on vacation home tax benefits (Texas)
Posted on 3/2/24 at 9:24 am

We purchased a vacation home this past year. We currently have no intention of renting it out so don’t have an LLC set up (but can set one up). Are there any tax breaks in Texas for a second home? Or any other ways to cut down my personal federal income tax liability with a second home?

Do you have a cpa? The benefit to renting out is that business expenses can be ran through it. Most states the only tax breaks are on primary residences.

Not really without a business use

Outside of it burning down, it does you no good as just a personal second home.

Thanks, that’s what I understood but wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing anything.

So how much do you have to “rent it out” to meet the requirements?
I was thinking about building a camp and AIR BNB ing it out some to defer expenses. Somewhere between 0 & 365 days a year is a threshold I suspect…

I think interest rate deduction on 2nd home as long as mortgages on both homes under 750k in aggregate is deductible (can be prorated).
