REPS Time was created by Jennifer Beadles, a real estate investor with 17 years of experience and an 8-figure rental portfolio spanning multiple states. She built this app because she needed it herself. After years of tracking Real Estate Professional Status hours on spreadsheets, notebooks, and cobbled-together systems that no CPA would feel confident defending in an audit.
Jennifer doesn't just build software for real estate investors. She is one. She actively qualifies for REPS every year, manages properties across multiple markets, and coaches hundreds of investors through the process inside her ROI Inner Circle community. Every feature in REPS Time exists because she hit a real problem in her own tax strategy and built the solution.
REPS stands for Real Estate Professional Status, and it's one of the most powerful tax strategies available to real estate investors. If you qualify, you can use rental losses to offset all of your income, not just passive income.
Spend 750+ hours in real estate activities per year to meet the minimum requirement
Spend more time in real estate than any other job or profession
Maintain detailed records to prove your qualifying activities
The savings can be massive, but only if you can prove your time. That's exactly what Reps Time was built to help with.
The Short Term Rental (STR) Loophole is a powerful tax strategy that allows real estate investors to use depreciation from short-term rentals to offset W-2 and active income, without needing Real Estate Professional Status.
Your property must have an average guest stay of 7 days or less to qualify as a short-term rental
You must materially participate with 100+ hours AND more time than anyone else on the property
Use bonus depreciation and cost segregation to create paper losses against your W-2 income
Unlike traditional rentals that generate passive losses (only offsetting passive income), the STR Loophole reclassifies your rental as a non-passive activity. Combined with cost segregation and bonus depreciation, you can generate significant paper losses to reduce your tax bill, even with a profitable property.

Cost segregation is an IRS-approved tax strategy that accelerates depreciation deductions on real estate, allowing property owners to significantly reduce their tax liability in the early years of ownership.
A cost segregation study identifies components of your property that can be depreciated over 5, 7, or 15 years instead of the standard 27.5 or 39 years.
Combined with bonus depreciation rules, you may be able to deduct a significant portion of these reclassified components in the first year of ownership.
By front-loading depreciation deductions, you keep more cash in your pocket now rather than spreading the tax benefit over decades.
Cost segregation is especially valuable for REPS-qualified investors and STR Loophole participants who can use real estate losses to offset active income. The larger your property value and the higher your tax bracket, the greater your potential savings.
