Because Airbnb only makes money when the guest books on Airbnb.Hence, they want the price to be cheapest on their platform, so people book on Airbnb instead of elsewhere, and want their properties to be able to compete with hotel prices (even after cleaning fee and service fees). 

That being said, the only thing that being a QREP does is allow you to take losses against active income.

Now many will try and BRRR or rehab properties which you can force appreciation, again not another bad strategy and can lead to better returns but its more active and takes more $ to do.

They already "made it" via what there doing for active income. 

The priority is consistent recommendations from active investors.
