Are you sure that single item wasn't your refi costs? When you refinance, your refi costs (usually called points) are amortized and deducted over the life of the new loan. The original asset entry does not change at all.
add a second addition into the same property that allowed me to enter the original value of the property and depreciate it as before.
What do you mean by second addition to depreciate? There is nothing to add to be depreciated. The only thing to add are your refi costs if the program did not add them for you automatically. Then your refi costs are amortized and deducted over the life of the loan. They are "not" depreciated.
