    There are two requirements to claim REP status

    1) 750 Hours
    2) You spend more time on real estate than other activities such as your W-2 Job or Business

    You want to work with a tax professional who will be able to advise you on what hours count and what hours do not count.

    Furthermore, the CPA may have a nice worksheet that you can use to help you document your hours.

    Best of luck!

    OP ask your larger local commercial real estate office for some recommendations.

    There's a lot of great CPAs in this forum and BP. I'd look through the forums, reach out to a few and see who you connect well with.
