Investors & landlords

I assume you didn't fix the house in anyway. If the house was not available for rent during the period the insurance covered, then the insurance should be taken as reimbursement of loss of rent and should be taxable but you may deduct the expenses to fix up the property to bring it back up where it is suitable to rent.
