i incur cleaning expenses only following occupancy by renters, billed though my management company and entered on a separate line.   This is a significant component of my expenses.  If I enter this on the Cleaning and maintenance line costs are allocated to my personal use... (40%, approx).  For truely shared costs it makes sense to share benefit by usage, but not these.  Is there a way to allocate these cleaning expenses paid to my management company tp the business deduction?

Yes. Not all categories are prorated but if you use 'Professional Fees' this expense should be allowed at 100%.

 

This answer assumes you have selected the following items:

  1. that the property is a multi-unit property (like a duplex) where you live.
  2. Yes, I will enter total amounts and let TurboTax Do the math

This was tested in TurboTax CD/Desktop, if you do not find the same result in the online version, please update here and we will assist.
