Can I deduct the entire interest amount of $45K? Any tricks to entering in TurboTax desktop?
Many thanks in advance.

Did you ever find an answer to this question? I have a similar situation with a mortgage for my vacation property from 2015 but my primary residence mortgage is from 2018. Cannot find any information on whether the $750k limit applies to the 2015 mortgage or if I can go up to $1M.
It depends. If these are separate residences, the full amount of the mortgage interest as deductible since both are under the maximum mortgage limitation amount. I actually created a scenario in my TurboTax program to recreate the parameters you outlined and received credit for the full amount of mortgage interest paid.
