Investors & landlords
You must prorate. There is no deduction for time spent using the property for personal use.
There are three scenarios. One is that you were living in the home as a personal primary residence and converted to rental use. In this example, you would begin taking expenses on the date it was placed in service. You place property in service in a rental activity when it is ready and available for a specific use in that activity.
The second is vacation home. Here, you intermittently use the home for personal use when it is not being rented.

The third is a not-for-profit rental. You rent it for less than you could on the open market.
