1040 Schedule "E" Form Confusing help

[Allan Shoo]

I am a new owner of a duplex that I live in one unit and rent out the other unit. needless to say is a Tax year, and I am doing my own tax. I have done some maintenance on the bulding as a whole. My question is can I include my time as part of cleaning and Maintenance? my other question is has anyone used Tax Software such as Turbo Tax? I am curious to hear what they thought of it and if its worth investing in it. Finally, I know I can write off business license, I just do not know where goes on schedule E..
