No. The homes are separate transactions. You can only include the expenses incurred to sell your home as part of the old home expenses.
The expenses you paid for the new home will be added to your cost basis of your new home so when you sell that home, you will deduct the expenses.
in order to claim any of the property taxes paid you would have to itemize your return.
Itemized expenses include mortgage interest, state and local taxes up to $10,000, medical expenses in excess of 7.5% of your AGI and casualty and losses in excess of 10% of you AGI with the first $100 not counting towards the loss. Your health insurance and all medical expenses are only deductible for the amount that is over 7.5% of your AGI. This means if your AGI is $50,000, then the amount that is over $3,750 is deductible.
Then your total itemized expenses would need to be greater than your standard deduction below in order to benefit from your insurance premium payments.
The 2023 Standard Deductions are as follows:
Blind and MFJ or MFS add $1,500
Single or HOH if blind add $1,850
