Back when I used to flip, I would occasionally lose money on a deal, even with me (a GC) as the owner.....the project takes longer, markets dip a little....oooops.

Thus you potentially lose current year tax shield advantages or you potentially lose accumulating suspended passive losses that can offset future depreciation recapture.

Assuming an average income or above and you can work from home you’ll want to narrow it down to only states that don’t have an income tax or you’ll likely lose all your house hacking savings to income tax on your w-2 income and rental income.

It can be managed by a property management company as long as there is nothing in the agreement where you would lose to ability to occupy the property.  

Generally "losing party pays winners reasonable costs" is allowed. 

This property should be making me 400 a month but instead I'm losing more than double that.

Note, even if insurance pays for all the damage your property suffers, you still lose.

What you can argue is using the SD to make up the differential since you are low losing $150 monthly because of their early termination.

So while, yes, it should have been included with the return, an administrative error does not mean you lose the suspended loss carryover. 

Seasoned flippers often lose money so I never understood how novices think they can jump in and have a risk free profitable first project -- sorry for being harsh but why bother saying anything if it is not the truth :-) -STR in Bethlehem is not allowed.
