What edition of turbotax do I use if I became a landlord?

I just bought a duplex that I was previously renting.  We live in about 70 percent of the house and the tenants the other 30.  I started renting it out immediately in June after putting a bunch of money into the other side.  I pay all the utilities and what not.  I love using Turbotax because they do the work for me.  So my question is...... Does turbotax have something I could use so that I am able to still do my own taxes???? Thanks  Dustin Hachfeld

If you own rental property and are using the TurboTax online editions then you will need the Premier edition or higher.

If you are using the TurboTax desktop CD/Download editions then any of the desktop editions can be used.  However it is recommended that you use the Premier edition as it gives more help and guidance for rental properties.
