Second, I have a question about REPS status in a longer term sense.The primary benefit of REPS status, as I see it, is to take passive real estate losses, usually from depreciation and accelerated depreciation via cost-segregation, and use those losses to offset active income, reducing current or future AGI and tax burden.I’m clear about this benefit, but what I’m unclear on is the consequence in out years.For example, if I put $100K into a multifamily syndication, and the syndication does a cost seg, resulting in a $40K loss, I believe that a Real Estate Professional could claim that $40K loss against their other income and reduce their AGI accordingly.

If they are, they should be able to clearly and confidently explain how they added value in that transaction. 

Is there clear title?

I think it's pretty clear it disincentivizes new construction or encourages landlords to find ways around it.However, I do believe we could do better in areas for encouraging new construction with zoning reform and other tax incentives.

I'm not sure, because what you get is not a clear title but a quitclaim deed. 

To address this, request documentation, update the lease, address rent payment, consult an attorney, and maintain a positive tenant relationship by communicating clearly.

I’m not clear what it’s called but for instance like what I believe Grant Cardone does if that makes sense?

I really do appreciate all of the comments folks have made and it’s clear that they have systems in place and I hope that knowledge will aid me in my endeavor. 

Then you actually dive into there knowledge of the area investing etc.Quite thorough but clearly filters agents.

For cold calling I would like them to speak clear English and not obviously sound like an out of the country call center.
