You will be able to deduct different amounts for each item, your primary residence portion and the rental portion. You should enter the deductions for your portion of your primary residence on Schedule A, as an itemized deduction.
You can deduct more expenses for your rental property than you can for your personal portion of the property. I have listed out the expenses per type and per property that you can deduct and how to calculate it.
Primary Residence
-
Interest - deduct 2/3 of your interest and points paid on your Schedule A, itemized deductions if you are eligible
-
Points paid - Points paid as part of a mortgage refinance usually must be deducted over the life of the loan. If you refinanced to a 15-year mortgage, for example, then you'd deduct a portion of 2/3 of the points each year for 15 years. This is different from points paid when you first bought the home; points on an original purchase can often be deducted in full in the year they're paid.
-
Costs not deductible - Appraisal fees, Attorney fees, Inspection costs, Legal and recording fees
