I have a out-of-town short term vacation rental. It's advertised and available for rent year-round, but mainly rents weekly in the summer months. I have to travel there every couple of months to do cleaning and maintenance. There may be a few days here and there that I relax and take it easy, but the majority of each trip is spent doing maintenance, repairs, and cleaning. As I think I understand it, I claim 100% business use for this property. On schedule E, how should I enter Days rented and Days of personal use? Do I need to count those days I rested as personal use days on Schedule E even if the purpose of the trip was cleaning and maintenance? Are days rented, the days actually rented out or days available for rent (365)?
I've heard various opinions on these questions and would like some guidance. Thanks in advance for your help.
