Provided I am to report the Airbnb activity on Schedule C, can I use the net loss (from painting, decorating, repairs, purchase of washer, dryer, furniture, bedding, linens, towels, etc) for 2019 on this activity against other active income such as W-2 income?

As mentioned above, you cannot discriminate against the family, even if it's because you know there's lead paint (or think there might be).

What is it going to cost me during turnover - do I need paint, flooring etc.2.

I'm looking through the spreadsheet and I think it's worth mentioning that it's possible to spend a lot less for certain material items as well as labor in many cases depending on how frugal you want to beinterior door with hardware: $5-10 used, $30-50 newwindow: $10-50 used, $100-200 newlight fixtures: $1-10 used, 6 pack flushmount at lowes for $44fan fixture: $24-60 new water heater: $250 newtoilet: $50-90 newsink: $40-200 new faucet: $10-30 newtile: 0.49-2/sqft newappliance: $20-200 each appliance usedmy last rehab was:60 elec permit cost + 300 elec repair (tenant destroyed meter box causing house to be condemned)1600 material + 1500 labor flooring for 1400 sqft500 material + 600 labor spray paint whole house semigloss and patch some large holes$30 for 4 interior doors which I put in$10 mirror for bathroom$100 paint porch, stairs, and stair rail brown$50 fridge, $10 burner plates for stoveI also spent at least a few hundred with help on cleaning and taking out the trash and some other expenses here and there which altogether added up to about 5 thousand.I spent maybe 30 hours over there in total on the weekends.

Places that need new flooring, paint, a deep cleaning, some yard work and so on.

By "partial" I mean renovating the kitchen and bathroom, painting the place, re-tiling the floor and maybe adding some smaller features that can make a difference to prospective buyers, such as new A/C units, new internal doors, or maybe even sell the place furnished (home staging is not really an option here); with no or minimal demolition, and hopefully without electricity or plumbing issues.
