The so called "settlement costs" pertain only to the
purchase of the house, and not the obtaining of the
mortgage, except for points of course.

Any re financing costs are not part and parcel of basis.

Default Cost basis of home after refinancing

I started renting my personal residence in year 2003. Turbo
tax is asking me to input settlement cost when I bought the
home to figure out the cost basis of the home. Can I also
add settlement cost when I refinanced the loan? They are
basically the same cost.
