It is used as an STR. I had to buy everything, new, that you can think of for a guest to stay there, comfortably, at an considerable expense.&nbsp; Items that are more than furniture and linens-items like dishes, flatware, pots and pans, small kitchen appliances, rugs, lamps, blinds, children care items, some decor items, etc.&nbsp; Also, laundry, dish soap, laundry soap, games, and a huge list of other things (150 items).&nbsp; Are these deductible? Thanks.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P> Wed, 26 Feb 2025 19:12:34 GMT canajo 2025-02-26T19:12:34Z https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/investments-and-rental-properties/discussion/new-construction-str-required-me-to-buy-everything-needed-for-a-guest-to-stay-there-from-scratch-are/01/3520826#M120596 <P>I had a custom home built in 2024.
