I own a duplex. I live in one unit and rent the other for the entire year. Am I obligated to split the property tax and mortgage tax among the units (schedule A and E)?

I originally entered all of my mortgage tax as an idemized deduction (sch A) and when I went back to split half against the rental income (sch E) I noticed the tax return drop. I would have expected it to increase.
