We sold our home in January 2020. Construction was delayed by COVID resulting in us having to live in a motel for 6 months--4 months longer than expected. Are my storage (moving costs) and lodging costs deductible?

Unfortunately, no, these are not deductible.

Thank you.  I figured they were not deductible, but it was worth asking just in case I had it wrong.
