Make Money with your HOUSE, OFFICE, CABIN, STORE - Your House, Office even your family Cabin can make you MONEY

Posted May 04, 2008.

MAKING MOVIES AT YOUR HOUSE! I'm always looking for new locations to film. My clients, Microsoft, Alaska Air, McDonald's, NFL, Sonics, Seahawks, Cadillac, Washington Lotto, TV Series, and Movies all ask for locations such as Houses, Offices, and Cabins, and Stores. My most recent request was for a shoe store and a gym for the upcoming campaign, "Mudup" which promotes a cleaner Puget Sound. It's sponsored by People for Puget Sound, The Nature Conservancy, and The Trust of Public Land. Now you can make some good money and have fun with a filming project.

It is also TAX DEDUCTIBLE!

Why is the rental of my location Tax Free? Here's some information you may find helpful when you get filming at your home. According to the IRS, if you own a home and you rent it out for filming, the rental payments you receive are tax free for up to 14 days a year. This can be verified at the Internal Revenue Service website in the "Frequently Asked Questions" section. Excerpt from the IRS website: "There is a special rule if you use a dwelling as a home and rent it for fewer than 15 days. In this case, do not report any of the rental income and do not deduct any expenses as rental expenses."

  • IRS Website/ Frequently Asked Questions *Please consult your tax advisor as individual tax situations may vary.

Send me an email with pictures of your location or just call me and we can chat.

All the Best,

    Hi Craig...

    In response to the promotion you posted, my husband and I own a restaurant business on Lake Washington in Kirkland (just north of Carillon Point). The restaurant is called Fiorente and its web link is in my profile. It's right next to/on the beach and we have a dock. The inside of the restauarnt has a fireplace and we get great sunsets. I'm at work right now and don't have any picutres to send you but it might be appropriate for one of your clients. Just thought I'd let you know about it in case you could use it...
