A standard home purchase is a personal expense. The cost of the home is not deductible. 

 

If you are trying to enter your mortgage interest in TurboTax Self-Employed you will click Deductions and Credits>>See All Tax Breaks>>Click Show More next to Your Home then click start next to Mortgage Interest and Refinancing.  Then you will walk through the steps of entering your 1098 for your mortgage interest.
