Investors & landlords

I have a similar question.  We are building a cabin for vacation rental purposes.  We began construction in 2021 and it will be finished in 2022.  We are paying as we go - no loan.

 

How do I treat the amount we spent in 2021 towards the cabin (logs, excavating, foundation)?  Do I wait until 2022 and show it only as putting a new building in service?  How do I treat the investment, since there is no loan and we are incurring costs to build it?

 

Any guidance is appreciated!
