None but mortgage interest and property taxes (if you itemize) are allowed on a personal use home. In order for you to deduct any of the other expenses, it must have been business use property, meaning you derived income from renting it to others.
You may also take sales expenses. Enter your sale in the Investment section.
Sales expenses include:
- commissions
- appraisal fees
- broker's fees
- legal fees
- advertising fees
- home inspection reports
- title insurance
- transfer taxes or fees
- geological surveys
- loan charges (points) or other fees paid on the buyer's behalf
