The original question here is if Mortgage Insurance is deductible for rental properties. The asnwer to that question is "yes". See the info from the IRS website.
The vast majority of the posts you read on this board that are dated in June of 2019 (or thereabout) were transferred from another board and are older than the post date (i.e., they were not posted on the date that appears on the post).
The PMI deductiblity has been the subject of tax extenders from time-to-time and some messages were posted during a time period when deductibility was in doubt due to legislative stonewalling.
No, you can deduct mortgage insurance premiums for a rental property.
I clicked on the link and it seems like you cannot. Maybe it changed since you posted the link that reads:
No, you can’t claim a deduction for private mortgage insurance premiums.

Yes, it expired at the end of 2017.

In general, you can deduct mortgage insurance premiums in the year paid. However, if you prepay the premiums for more than one year in advance, for each year of coverage you can deduct only the part of the premium payment that will apply to that year. Report the deduction on line 9 of Schedule E (Form 1040 or 1040-SR), Supplemental Income and Loss.
