Where do you put in you rental property tax deduction?

Best answer by xmasbaby0

If you mean you are a tenant who pays rent to live somewhere:

 

RENT

There is not a rent deduction or credit on your Federal return.  If your state has anything for renters you will be prompted to enter your rent info when you complete your state return.  As far as I know, the states that have anything for rent are Arizona, California, Connecticut, Hawaii, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington DC, and Wisconsin.

Do you mean that you own a property that you rent out to someone else? If that's what you mean, you have income from the rental property, and you also have expenses. It's not just a deduction. See the following FAQs about entering rental income and expenses in TurboTax.
