Tenant moved out and we did not try to rent again and don't live there. Can I deduct mortgage interest and real-estate tax for the remainder of the year?

tenant moved out July 3rd of 2016. Property is vacant and not listed. Since I make over 150k, I can't deduct the income loss. Since you can't deduct mortgage interest and real-estate tax on a rental, wanted to classify it as something else - but the only option I saw was to convert to personal use. However no one is using the property so I don't think that applies.
