1099 Required for Rental Property Work Deduction?

Hello Bigger Pockets Community! I want some varying opinions about the tax deduction for services work completed on a rental property of mine. I had some subcontractor work for a rental of mine and failed to send a 1099. The subs are giving me are hard time now that I am requesting to meet the Jan 31st due date. The reality of things is there are two different “unsaid” prices for subs, a 1099 price and a non-1099 price. I’ve talked to two CPAs and they’ve stated I definitively can’t take the deduction without the 1099s. However, I have the bill of services and a copy of the check, basically proof, that the services were paid for. Is this enough, can I deduct, do I take the chance of being audited? Thanks
