Deductions on rentals as a RE agent/Landlord

I wanted to know what are the limits on deductions for depreciation or cash flow passive income on rental homes owned by a licensed RE agent. I have read that it's better to have a license when you have rentals (SFR's) because you can deduct more, but how much more compared to a non-licensed landlord and what are the limits.
Thank you

John

High net worth individuals often lose most if not all of the ability to take current year deduction for their passive losses even though they actively participate. A high net worth individual that is a real estate professional doesn't run into this limitation.
