On the surface, you are correct, but as has been pointed out, there are situations in which reduced Schedule E income might actually have the opposite effect on the refund.
However, since we in the Community cannot see your tax return nor the screen you are on, I am going to encourage you to look on your 1040 and Schedules 1, 2, and 3 to see what changes when more rental expenses are added.
Even on the Online product, you can see your 1040 and its schedules at any time by clicking on Tax Tools (on the left), then Tools (below it), then clicking on View my Summary (in the center), then clicking on Preview my 1040 (back on the left). Please tell us what is changing before and after you add rental expenses.
