View Calendar
01/15/2018 5:30 PM - 01/15/2018 9:00 PM
Cambridge Innovation Center - Venture Cafe
Address: One Broadway, 1 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02142, USA
 

2017 is over and it's time to think about taxes. Whom do landlords have to 1099, how do we file Schedule E, are there tax implications for setting up an LLC or a Corporation, and most importantly, how can we legally avoid paying tax? All this and more. Speaker TBD.

Major Speaker Update!

We're honored to have Wilford Durbin, Chief of Staff for Cambridge's Mayor, Marc C. McGovern, join us to review the restrictions the City of Cambridge has enacted on distant Airbnb owners. During this past term, Wilford worked as Legislative Aide for Councillor Craig Kelley, who sponsored the bill. In addition to authoring major portions of the ordinance, he has also been actively engaged in short-term rental advocacy in neighboring communities, regional groups, and at the Statehouse.

The City Council's intent was to make Airbnb's safe, but have they driven Airbnb onto the black market? Find out how this impacts your business and whether it's likely to catch on elsewhere.
