Thinking about buying a home? One of the biggest tax benefits of homeownership is the mortgage interest deduction—but how much can it actually save you? Let's break it down with a real-world example.
Example: Mortgage Interest Deduction for Year 3
Home Price: $500,000
Loan Amount: $400,000 (Assuming 20% down payment)
Interest Rate: 6% (Fixed)
Year in Loan: 3rd Year
Total Interest Paid (Year 3): ~$22,000
If you itemize your deductions, you can deduct that $22,000 from your taxable income!
Understanding tax benefits can help you plan ahead! Send me a DM or reach out if you have questions about the benefits of homeownership.
