Airbnb Investing in the Mountains: Real Numbers, Strategy & Tax Advantages

Have you ever thought about owning something in the Colorado mountains someday? What if that decision could be both a lifestyle upgrade and a strategic investment that generates income, builds wealth, and provides substantial tax savings when structured correctly?

Whether you are here for a ski trip, live in Denver or Boulder and are considering a second home, or live in the mountains full time and are looking to invest strategically, this event was designed for you.

Hosted by Miriam Nichols, Colorado STR investor and specialized vacation investment Realtor, and Lillian Beattie, mountain property insurance specialist, this is a data driven breakdown of what mountain short term rental investing actually looks like in Colorado.

Miriam will walk through real case studies from Breckenridge, Vail, Keystone, Alma, and surrounding mountain markets, including legislation, verified revenue history, expense breakdowns, and one year, five year, and ten year financial outcomes. She will demonstrate exactly how these properties are underwritten before purchase so you understand how to analyze mountain vacation homes with precision.

Lillian will explain how to structure and protect a mountain property in today’s evolving insurance landscape, balancing price, coverage, and long term asset performance.

When structured correctly, short term rentals can qualify for 100% bonus depreciation. For high income earners, this strategy can offset a substantial portion of taxable income in the year of purchase, even eliminating all tax liability for the year.

We will show real examples of how this approach works in practice.

• How to determine whether a mountain property is built for cash flow, appreciation, or both
• How STR regulations differ across mountain towns and how they impact investment decisions
• How to calculate what a mountain property will actually earn before you buy

• How to properly insure your mountain investment from day one
• How high income earners are leveraging the short term rental tax strategy to materially reduce tax liability

Mountain real estate can offer lifestyle, income, appreciation, and tax efficiency in one asset. But only when it is analyzed and structured properly.

Happy hour food and drinks will be provided, so you can learn, connect, and ask questions in a relaxed setting.
