Whether you enter any information about these expenses in the itemized deduction section depends on how you entered them in the rental property section.
In the rental property section, you get the option of entering the total of each expense, such as mortgage interest, and then Turbo Tax will allocate the remaining amount as an itemized deduction. If you chose this option, then you would not make any entries in the itemized deductions section. Also, you wont actually see any amounts in the itemized deductions section. They would only be included in the total itemized deductions on your Form 1040.
