Investors & landlords

You cannot take any deductions for personal use cleaning and maintenance expenses.  So if the property does not qualify as a rental, then you cannot take a deduction.  If it is rented for less than 14 days and you use it for personal reasons as well, you cannot claim any expenses even if you are only cleaning for the rental.
