Description
How can a business utilize the “14-day home rental rule” and get the most out of their business deductions while still taking advantage of tax-free income?

He explores how this strategy can be beneficial for businesses that need to host events and meetings for employees and clients, as it allows them to deduct the rental rate from their tax return. Mike covers the details of how to make use of this tax code, including the need to document rental activity, setting a reasonable rental rate, and issuing 1099s if payments exceed #600.
