## What is REPS Time?

Qualify for REPS or the STR Loophole the easy way.

REPS Time is the simplest way for real estate investors to track hours and unlock tax savings through Real Estate Professional Status (750 hours) or the Short-Term Rental Loophole (100 hours per property).

No spreadsheets. No stress. No year-end scramble.

FEATURES

- Sync your calendar: Import events from Google Calendar or iCal and log hours in one tap
- Track by property: Essential for STR investors (material participation is tested per rental)
- Log contractor hours: Prove you worked more than your cleaners or co-hosts
- Automatic categorization: Time sorted by activity type
- Weekly reminders: Stay on track all year
- Progress dashboard: See exactly where you stand toward 100, 500, or 750 hours
- Export for CPA or audit: PDF and CSV reports with all IRS-required fields

WHO IT'S FOR

- STR hosts using the short-term rental loophole
- Spouses managing rentals for REPS qualification
- Real estate investors tracking material participation
- Anyone tired of spreadsheet chaos

WHY IT MATTERS

Most investors miss out on REPS or STR tax benefits because they didn't track properly or they scrambled to reconstruct hours at tax time (which the IRS calls non-contemporaneous and can reject).

REPS Time logs with timestamps, so your records hold up.

Your shortcut to real estate tax savings, done right.

### 1/5 — Bait and Switch

*2025-12-22*

Only 5 hours tracking and then you need to pay. No mention of it lol… save your money

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback about the 5-hour limit. We do note this in our emails and throughout the app, but our team is already working on making it more visually clear. Unlike others who require signing up for a limited free trial, we chose to give users more time to use the app to see if it's a fit without payment pressure. It's a customer-first approach that is different, but we never want users to feel like it's a bait and switch. Appreciate you taking the time to share feedback on this.

### 5/5 — Really cool app

*2025-12-03*

I like how simple and easy it is to use. The calendar swipe feature is a big time saver. I added recurring calendar events for weekly PM meetings and calls with my contractor so all I have to do is swipe.

**Developer response:** Thanks for taking the time to share!

### 5/5 — Very useful

*2025-11-30*

Before I was using Excel but I was always forgetting to log my hours this is just  what I was looking for! Great app,saved a lot of my time

**Developer response:** Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback! Happy to hear it's saving you time.

### 1/5 — Dude.  Seriously?!

*2025-10-23*

This app is basic, which for a free app would suffice. But whoever built it was being “cash grab” deceptive and I wish I could sue to get my 10 minutes back that the deceptive and unannounced trial was. You can get the exact same results and way more detail with Siri and the most basic of calendar apps. The kicker: they want $15 bucks a month for it.. which is nothing but still immensely overpriced for this garbage I might pay $20 for once or ask an AI to build for free. The only reason I’m spending the time to complain is because cause of the deception: no mention of a cost or trial and it wasted a lot of my search efforts because of this. Save your time and Starbucks money and choose anything else, even just Siri. The REPS record keeping is not that strict with the IRS as long as it is done uniformly through the year… cocktail napkins are accepted as long as it’s consistent.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the detailed write-up. Quick clarification to set the record straight: REPS Time does not have a “gotcha” trial. There is no countdown, no surprise paywall. Everyone gets 5 hours of tracking for free before making a decision. We chose usage over a 7-day free trial because people don’t decide in 7 days whether they’ll actually track. They decide after they try to track.

As for “just use Siri” or “just use a napkin," sure, you can. The IRS doesn’t care if you log on a napkin, a Moleskine, or Excel. They care that every entry includes the date, time, activity, and property. Siri and calendars don’t force you to do that, which is why they fail audits. The napkin method works until the napkin never makes it to tax day.

REPS Time is for people who want:
• Entries structured to what an auditor will ask
• Breakdown by property, not a blob of notes
• Instant export without hunting through voice memos
• Zero guesswork or missing fields

If that’s “garbage,” totally fair to skip it. But deceptive cash-grab it is not. The free hours are there, openly, precisely so no one has to buy before they know whether they’ll actually use it.

Appreciate the feedback.

### 5/5 — Best reps tracker I’ve used

*2025-05-13*

If you’re serious about qualifying for REPS and want to stay audit-ready, this app is a must-have.

**Developer response:** Glad it’s making your tracking faster and simpler. Appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.

### 5/5 — This App is Great!!

*2025-05-13*

Reps Time is an essential tool for any real estate investor or agent working toward Real Estate Professional Status. The app makes it incredibly easy to log hours, categorize activities, and generate reports. I no longer have to worry about spreadsheets everything is tracked in real time, right from my phone!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the kind words. This is exactly why we built REPS Time.
