Is Renovation Travel Deductible?

[VICTORIA LEONE]

Renovating a house I bought in another state over several yrs, and they were hoarders. Little by little I travel there to empty it out and repair it with the intention of eventually selling it. Are the travel expenses deductible? And are the rental truck expenses to donate things to charities deductible?

@VICTORIA LEONE if you have a corporation, then this sort of travel should be deductible. But def check w/ a CPA. 

All the best!

A corporation doesn't impact the deductibility. It's not deductible as she's not in business yet. The rental isn't operational yet.
