About STR Loophole: Hour Tracker
Track your short-term rental hours and qualify for one of the best tax loopholes in real estate. THE STR LOOPHOLE EXPLAINED The IRS allows short-term rental owners to use property losses to offset W-2 income—but only if you prove "material participation." That means tracking every hour you spend on your rental. Miss the threshold? Your losses stay passive. Hit it? You could save $10,000-$50,000+ in taxes. STR Loophole makes tracking effortless. ▸ TWO-TAP HOUR LOGGING Log hours in seconds. Select the property, pick the activity, enter the time. Done. ▸ VOICE LOGGING Just talk. "Spent 45 minutes responding to guest messages for Beach House." We'll log it automatically. ▸ PER-PROPERTY TRACKING Track each property separately. See exactly where you stand on the 100-hour or 500-hour test for every rental you own. ▸ PROGRESS DASHBOARD Visual progress rings show your status at a glance. Green means you're on track. Red means you need to log more hours. ▸ SMART NOTIFICATIONS Weekly reminders to log your hours. Monthly check-ins on your progress. Never fall behind. ▸ CPA-READY EXPORTS Generate PDF or CSV reports with one tap. Hand them to your CPA at tax time. Clean, organized, audit-ready. WHO THIS IS FOR - Airbnb, VRBO, and short-term rental owners - Real estate investors using the STR loophole - Anyone tracking hours for material participation - High-income W-2 earners offsetting taxes with rental losses THE HOUR REQUIREMENTS The IRS offers two main tests: 100-Hour Test: Spend 100+ hours AND more than anyone else (your PM, cleaner, etc.) 500-Hour Safe Harbor: Spend 500+ hours—no comparison needed. STR Loophole tracks both. You pick your target per property. WHAT COUNTS AS MATERIAL PARTICIPATION? - Guest communication - Cleaning coordination - Maintenance and repairs - Property inspections - Listing management - Bookkeeping - Furnishing We include a built-in activity picker so you always know what qualifies. PRIVACY & SECURITY Your data stays on your device. We don't sell your information. Optional cloud backup available. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ — Stop guessing. Start tracking. Qualify for the loophole.
