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.

But I believe that if you're not violating any terms, not in a restricted industry or involved with anything deemed risky by Stripe then you're probably safe.It appears their move to Stripe is for accelerated payment processing, which is interesting since they acquired eRentPayment and Payment Report.On surface level it might be they're adding Stripe as an option on top of their existing infrastructure.
