(I fly private on my big jet with 300 of my closest friends and allowed Spirit to wrap it for marketing purposes :-) )My biggest challenge is that I believe Residential Real Estate can provide an amazing lifestyle, better than most surgeons, but it is not scalable enough alone to take me to the next level.

Would love to be able to take advantage of this loophole this year.Found this article A taxpayer can overcome the presumption that all rental activities are passive if the taxpayer qualifies as a real estate professional by satisfying the two quantitative tests of Sec. 469(c)(7)(B):More than one-half of the personal services performed in trades or businesses by the taxpayer during the tax year are performed in real property trades or businesses in which the taxpayer materially participates, andThe taxpayer performs more than 750 hours of services during the tax year in real property trades or businesses in which the taxpayer materially participates.There are 11 types of real property trades or businesses: real property development, redevelopment, construction, reconstruction, acquisition, conversion, rental, operation, management, leasing, or brokerage.Qualifying as a real estate professional allows the taxpayer to overcome the presumption that all rental activities are passive.

However, there is a provision in the law that allows the taxpayer to reconstruct their daily log.
