IRS & Real Estate Investors - Passive Loss

The IRS is cracking down on real estate professionals.
It's questioning loss deductions. Real estate pros are exempt
from the passive-loss rules if they spend over half their working hours
AND at least 750 hours per year materially involved in real estate.

such as builders, landlords, managers and brokers. It wants to make sure
that the time tests are met. Thousands of tax returns have been pulled.
