Deductions & credits

You continue to depreciate the 'old' house  (carryover Basis) using the original "placed in service" date of the 'old' house.  That will 'finish' depreciating that part.

 

You then create a second asset to depreciate the 'extra' money paid for the new property, using the new property's placed in service date.
