Ok, I'm at a loss... 

I’ve seen many people get creative offering many projects like car washes, propane, u haul rentals, food, etc.

Investors with experiences and losses recommend living within 3 or 4 hours of the rental, so it's easy to drive back if something goes haywire.My friends live 2 hours from theirs and it's a hassle. 

If their belongings were damaged or if food spoiled as a direct result of the leak, then I might consider reimbursing them for their losses.

Once you recognize a capital gain, there are ways to invest that create passive losses to offset these passive gains, but that can only happen if you have capital gains in the first place!
