George's "maybe" is correct. It really depends on the amount of the owner's involvement rather than a blanket "yes" for rentals in general.

I have a rental and I believe that the scope of MY ACTIVITIES with it are SO EXTENSIVE as to give rise to qualify for QBI. So, for me the answer is yes.
@fredr needs to decided, based on a thorough set of open end questions to his client, whether that property qualifies.

It looks like there may be a 250 hour minimum of rental services to qualify for the QBI. See Rev Notice 2019-7 https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-drop/n-19-07.pdf And a shorter explanation:

That's a safe harbor. There are other ways to qualify.

One excellent commentator's take on it:

There is NO blanket answer of yes/no. You as the tax pro have to evaluate the facts & circumstances of each one of your clients.
