That's (theoretically) exactly what you're paying them for...Unless you're a RE professional, rental real estate losses are generally "per se" passive and won't be able to offset W-2 and retirement income unless your modified AGI is below $150k.It's generally not advisable to liquidate a retirement account to start investing as the early distribution will be taxed at not only your marginal income tax bracket but you would also incur a flat 10% penalty on the distribution.
