Yes, but only pro-rated amounts for interest and property taxes (based on a daily amount from your closing date until your first payment) are deductible.

Prepaid mortgage interest and property tax held in escrow is not deductible.

How do I put it on turbo tax as it asked me to put a lender, while I paid to the county?
