Multiple improvements done on this duplex in 2021, including new roof, gutters, flooring, drywall, electrical, appliances, and heating/cooling unit for the second floor.

Has new flooring and appliances but kitchen and baths are original but well maintained in above average condition.

Roof is relatively new, A/C is brand new and appliances are in very good condition. 

She owes me 2 months of rent, stolen appliances and damage caused to the property.

split the home into two units, upgrade appliances, add hvac, split the yard for each unit.

For example, if this $1,000 was spent on appliances, you can deduct it as maintenance which hurts your lending profile, or you can deduct it via bonus depreciation that does not affect lending.

They also mow the lawns, shovel the snow, pay most if not all utilities, and provide most of their own appliances. 

Upgrades/repairs include:flooring (tile and carpet, entire house), painting (entire house), complete kitchen renovation with new appliances, cabinets, sink, lightingcomplete bathroom renovationsupgrade/replace ACupgrade/replace existing hot tub  upgrade/replace furniture/bedsupgrade/replace old pier with newadd new kayaks, paddle boards, and bikesI am thinking anything that is removable (furniture, appliances, water toys, bikes, pier, etc) could qualify as an asset for the LLC and thus be used as a tax expense for the LLC.
