Property taxes for a room rented on Airbnb for several months
How does TurboTax prorate property taxes for a room rental? I am struggling to under the tool logic here. Scenario: I have rented a room (1Bd out of 3) on Airbnb starting in September 2019 (rented for 54 nights). Let’s assume my total property tax for 2019 is 10k per 1098. What should I input in the tool? I was never asked about the number of rooms rented vs total by TurboTax. I assume it’s not prorating. When I follow the instructions and input line 1 from 1098, which is $10k, the result doesn’t make sense (like $7k loss). Please help. The same question applies to the mortgage interest.
