If the house was unrented from January 1st to the date when it was sold you will not be allowed to deduct any expenses related to the rental property on your 2019 tax return.

You will report the sale of your rental property in TurboTax by searching for sale of rental property then select Jump to sale of business property in the results box. Follow the program prompts to enter the sales information for your rental property.
