Investment property has been under renovations for the entire year, no rental income being collected. Can Schedule E be filed with all itemized expenses and loss be taken for the year?

    If the property was rented in 2021 and will be rented again in 2023 after the renovations have been completed Then you can continue to use the schedule E to report all the Holding expenses however the improvements/renovations must be added as an asset and depreciated over 27 1/2 years. In the TurboTax program simply say the property was rented for one day so you can keep the schedule E active.
