An election needs to be made to capitalize the interest.

Default Is morgage interest as cost bast for investment home ?

I had an investment home sold last year, I was wondering if
the morgage interest I paied over the months can be treated
as the cost of investment and added to the base? or I have
to deduct it in Schedule A ?

Thanks
Dave
