Rental services include activities such as advertising, negotiating and executing leases, verifying information contained in tenant applications, collecting rent, management, maintenance and repair of the property and various other services.<\/p>\n<p>The term \u201crental services\u201d does not include financial or investment management activities (such as arranging financing), procuring property, studying and reviewing financial statements or reports on operations, planning, managing, or constructing long-term capital improvements, or hours spent traveling to and from the real estate.<\/p>\n<p>Certain real estate types excluded under Code Sec. 199A are real estate used for personal residence by the taxpayer and triple net lease arrangements. An exception to the triple-net lease exclusion exists for \u201cself-rental\u201d. If the property leased is under common control, and the tenant carries on a trade or business, the triple-net-lease is eligible for the Section 199A deduction.<\/p>\n<p>Please call our office to discuss these safe harbor requirements for rental real estate businesses. We can review your current business operations and organization to see if your rental real estate business qualifies for the Code Sec. 199A deduction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>~ Author &#8211;
