3. Use 1031 Exchanges to Scale Across Tamarack Projects
3. Use 1031 Exchan
Investors can employ exchanges from their older investments swap into Tamarack Resort’s desirable STRs without triggering gains
This allows refresh portfolio, trade better-performing units, and defer capital gains repeatedly
4. Leverage SALT Bonus and Mortgage Interest Deductions
4.LeverageSALTBonusandMortgageInterestDeductions
Property taxes at Tamarack (all homes, condos, custom homesites) can be
partially offset since the SALT deduction cap increased to $40K
Combine that with fully deductible mortgage interest and PMI, and you
substantially reduce taxable income in high-income years.
Tamarack could be a strategic goldmine for investors under the new tax framework offering accelerated write-offs, active income treatment, deferred gains, and long-term appreciation potential. The tax law signed on July 4, 2025, restores and expands several powerful real estate incentives, especially beneficial for high-net-worth individuals and those in high-cost markets. To fully capitalize on these opportunities, smart planning and execution are essential. Start by consulting your tax professional
