No I was referring to the individual standard deduction. Head of household gets 12,400 and a couple 18,640 that takes a good amount of itemized deductions to meet. So it would take a home loan higher than what most is worth at these low rates to surpass the standard deduction.



Your interest deduction follows the use of the money, not the collateral. Business use of proceeds equals business schedule deduction.


Can you clarify that?

Reason I ask is my wife and I were considering building a new house at our farm site. With what our current house and property could bring we could pay off the farmstead HQ/Land, then get a cheaper mortgage on the house. Kinda robbing Peter to pay paul, but paying paul back at a cheaper interest rate.
IN555’s response was welcome because I hadn’t thought of a Max mortgage interest deduction. Looks like I’d be under a max, But wanted to get you to clarify what you were saying in case I’m miss understanding or wrong.
