what part on turbo tax does this get added to?
If you're asking where to enter your other costs like title fees, attorney fees, and real estate commissions, you don't enter those items in TurboTax. Those items will be added to the cost (basis) of the land when you sell the land.
See IRS Publication 551, Basis of Assets, page 2 and 3, Real Property, Settlement costs, for additional information.
