Four Tax Deductions When you Buy a Home

Homeownership has tax advantages.

The down payment on the purchase of a house is not deductible.

However, these four items are deductible on your annual U.S. income taxes.

1. Mortgage loan interest
2. Real estate taxes
3. Closing fees that decrease the rate of the mortgage loan
4. Mortgage insurance required on all FHA and VA loans, and on conforming or conventional mortgages higher than 80 percent loan-to-value ratio (LTV)
