Deducting and Depreciating Expenses for Vacant Property

Hello, I purchased a single-family home in 2023 that will be rented to a tenant beginning in January 2024.  Turbo Tax tells me that because it wasn't rented in 2023, it should not be listed as a rental.  However, I had many expenses associated with improving and getting the property ready for tenants.  Can any of these expenses be deducted or depreciated on my 2023 return?
