We failed to sell our rowhouse last year after the market shifted, so we’re renting it out for now. If things improve, we’d still prefer to sell. We have the budget for either a kitchen refresh (new cabinets and counters) or adding a second full bath upstairs. Both were common requests from past viewers. Which adds more long-term value for a rental versus a potential sale? I can only afford one.

We currently have a primary residence with a mortgage balance of ~640K, so my understanding is I could only deduct the mortgage interest on 110K of the second mortgage to stay under the 750K cap. If I were to buy the second home through an LLC, would that allow me to exceed that 750K since the expenses of the second home would be pass through expenses/income?
