Supplemental Taxes for second Home converted to rental.

I purchased a home in April 2017 and used it as a second home.  I converted it to a rental and it was available for rent in July 2017.  Renters moved in end of July.

I paid supplemental taxes on the property in 2017 while it was a rental.  Do I add up all property taxes (including supplemental taxes) and then prorate all of it for the rental and then prorate it for the second home?  Or do I add in the supplemental property taxes only to my rental because I paid it while it was a rental?

It's prorated.

For the rental, enter property taxes paid (including supplemental) from the time the unit was ready and available to rent (July-Dec).

On your schedule A enter the property taxes paid from April - July, plus any taxes that you paid at closing.

Thanks!  Just to verify, supplemental taxes are prorated for the rental and also prorated for the second Home
