    Explanation: Personal or rental properties aren't subjected to net loss deduction. Sean and Jenny could have chosen to rent out the property for more than 40 days or stayed in the building more than they did. The property being personal is not subject to net loss deduction resulting from mortgage payment, utility and property tax and depreciation. In other to reduce or prevent the net loss incurred in subsequent years, Sean and Jenny could probably lease or put the property up for rent for a substantial portion of the year.
