You can qualify for this by:Having tenants for 7 days or less at a time.Materially participate, typically with the test: You participated in the activity for more than 100 hours during the tax year, and you participated at least as much as any other individual (including individuals who didn’t own any interest in the activity) for the year.If you materially participate, you can offset your non-passive income even if you have W-2 income.

To qualify, you generally need to spend more than 750 hours per year on real property trades or businesses in which you materially participate.

Tax benefits can help make a better business deal, but a bad business deal is hardly ever going to break even just because of tax benefits.The other big consideration you should have, in order to actually benefit from real estate fueled losses or credits, it will require a substantial investment of time - either to get over the material participation thresholds for short term rentals, or to get over the real estate professional thresholds for mid term /  traditional rentals.
