How do I qualify as a real estate professional?

Quick Answer

Qualify as a real estate professional by spending 750+ hours/year in real estate trades AND more than 50% of personal service hours in real estate. You must also materially participate in each rental (typically via the aggregation election).

Two-prong test plus material participation requirement for REPS.
