But if the IRS sees your rental as passive, those losses may not offset your W-2 or business income the way you expected. In this episode, David Wiener and Gabriel Virdaru break down passive vs. active real estate in plain English, explain real estate professional status, and show how material participation can unlock serious tax savings. We also cover: • What counts as passive income vs. active income. • Why many investors misunderstand real estate professional status. • How material participation works in the real world. • What short-term rental investors need to know. • Common CPA and bookkeeping mistakes that trigger bad tax outcomes. If you own rental property, do cost segregation, or want to know whether your losses can actually help you, this episode is a must-watch.
