Which benefits can I claim for new SFH bought and advertise as rental in Dec 2025, but found tenant in Feb 2026?
Request your advise on the benefits I can get, and how to enter this in Turbo Tax as this is my First investment property:
1. I bought a new construction SFH in Calfornia on Dec 10th, 2025 with cash
2. Expenses: I got landscaping done - spent around $8k for it in Dec 2025
3. I paid Property Manager who Advertised it immediately on Zillow for rent on Dec 10th, 2025
4. I paid property tax for 2025-26 in Dec 2025.
5. I found tenant only in Feb 1st, 2026.
I heard that I could be eligible for depreciation, property tax deduction , etc. ..
Also appreciate any advice on the sections I should enter all this : Wages/income -> Rental income? (what should I choose there as it asks whether it was rented in 2025), Deductions-> which sections ?
