Help - I've tried everything to be able to type in the fields of property taxes and medical expenses.  I noticed someone else has the same issue!  Please help! I want to get done!

Yes, you can get this done. I recommend following these best practices, especially when you are getting unexpected results:

• Sign out of your TurboTax Program completely
• Close the browser window
• Wait a few minutes
• Open a new browser window in Incognito Chrome
• Sign in to TurboTax
   
• From the left menu, select Federal
• Deductions & Credits
• Scroll down past all tax breaks to Medical and click Show More
• After entering your information, return to the Deductions & Credits page and scroll down to Your Home and click Show More

Hello I need assistance with my 2018 taxes.  I sold a property on 12/22/2017 in Maryland for sale price of 205,700.00 and received 173,670 after closing.  I purchased another property in Montgomery Al on October 6, 2017 in the amount of 97,000.00 for my daughter to live in while attending law school.  

where should I add these cost on the tax forms

You would include a sale that occurred in 2017 on your 2017 return. You can amend.

Where you enter it depends on the type of property sold. Was it your primary residence? A second home?

You do not enter the purchase of a property, unless it is a rental property and you collect full rental value for rent. Then amount would be used to determine depreciation.

If it is a second home, you can deduct mortgage interest and property taxes up the the prescribed limits.
