Portfolio income, such as interest does not have any preferential tax rates so it is taxed at your ordinary tax rates.For the average taxpayer, interest income will not be considered active or passive which the original poster is trying to claim(as passive income).You, from my understanding, are in the business of originating and buying notes.

While I don’t currently own any property, I’m actively looking to purchase my first one and eager to learn everything I can about real estate investment and Airbnb hosting.

I also looked into local clubs in the area and there’s a couple - the REIA, as you mentioned, and then a pretty active club comprised of female investors. 

I work in Albuquerque, NM and wear many hats utilizing many tools.20 rental units12 active flips - recs to purchase -some are now rec notes-private money on the flips utilizing retirement plans/corporate/nonprofit funds-wholesaling and I have started a new platform of providing financed wholesales.would love to see if my knowledge is of value to others.

People on these boards are always trying to network with wholesalers, but active real estate agents who work with investors see more deals, on and off market, than anyone else.

One responsible party.I began posting on BP in January 2009, and almost immediately, active investors and other posters with differing views made the same arguments in your posting.

The key factor is ensuring the property qualifies for favorable tax treatment by adhering to IRS rules regarding short-term rentals and material participation.For the 7-day rule, the IRS requires that:The average guest stay must be seven days or less for the property to qualify as a short-term rental.If the average stay is 30 days or less, you must provide substantial services similar to what hotels offer, such as daily cleaning or concierge services.Regarding material participation, to further classify the income as non-passive, you must meet one of the following criteria:You spend more than 500 hours actively managing the rental in a year.You manage the business yourself and spend at least 100 hours, with your involvement exceeding that of any other person involved in the rental.Please note there are actually 7 ways to qualify, the above two are the most common.

If ever you are in the multi family wholeselling I’m a active buyer in Montreal and surrounding.have a great day
