Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Please define what you mean by 'mixed use' property. If you converted the property from personal use only to rental use only OR from rental use only to personal use only during the year, then you need to change the number of days of personal use that you have entered.
Personal use days are only considered when your property is a rental property, but you use it personally during the time it is also being advertised and available to rent. This situation is the most common with a vacation rental property that is used for a certain number of days by the owner in between renters.
If you converted it during the year, then your personal use days should be zero and the rental days the number of days it was rented. Then, you would prorate the expenses yourself and only claim the expenses that were incurred during the time it was a rental property. Personal expenses such as mortgage interest and property tax would also be prorated and you would claim the personal portion on Schedule A, with the rental portion claimed on Schedule E.
