Investors & landlords
Yes, if you are not reimbursed for your travel expenses (including a rental car) to a temporary job site, then you can deduct those job-related expenses. Note, though, that in order to deduct job-related expenses, you must itemize expenses on your tax return (instead of taking the standard deduction) and job-related expenses are subject to the 2% of AGI floor (meaning you can only deduct the amount of your job-related expenses that exceed 2% of your adjusted gross income.)
Here is more information regarding the deductibility of job-related expenses, plus steps to take to enter the job-related expenses on Form 2106 in TurboTax.
