Quote from @Kevin Sobilo: My leases state that any monies owed are payable "as rent" so that if they do not pay that damage bill I can simply choose to evict them for "unpaid rent" which is simple and cookie cutter.FYI this is not legal in Colorado. https://leg.colorado.gov/bills/hb23-1095 prohibits "A provision that characterizes any amount or fee set forth in the rental agreement, with the sole exception of the set monthly payment for occupancy of the premises, as "rent" for which all remedies to collect rent, including eviction, are available"As for the $600 faucet... it sounds like you just called up a random plumber and told them to install a faucet.

While I am not an accountant, and you should speak to yours about this, there is a loophole in the tax code called the STR Loophole which allows your STR (provided you are not using a PM) to be counted as active income/active expense so that the costs, payments, depreciation etc. goes against your active W-2 income.
