Investors & landlords

Yes, these properties are likely QBI eligible.  For a rental property to be eligible for the Section 199A deduction, the activity must rise to the level of a business according to IRC Code 162.  Prior court cases have established that if the rental activity is a for-profit endeavor, it does rise to the level of a business.  Usually this is the case if you are renting the properties at fair rental value for your area.
