Outstanding Mortgage Principal

[dpearce1]

My mortgage was sold during 2019. I have a 1098 from the original lender and from the new lender.  Both 1098's have an Outstanding Principal Balance in Box 2.  If I enter both amounts, Turbo Tax will think I have about twice as much mortgage outstanding.  However, Turbo Tax does not let me enter $0 or Blank.  If I leave both amounts in Box 2 then it pushes the mortgage balance over $1M and I am not eligible to itemize.  What is the solution?
