@DianeW777 - thank you again. I am a bit confused. This article from TT says I can just add improvement costs to cost basis when I sell the house and does not tell to depreciate it:

I would appreciate advice/clarity on how to deal with improvement costs.
Similar to purchase closing costs, it seems I can just add those to the cost basis when I sell the house. There is no need to depreciate if I forgot to add them in the beginning.
