Participant[quote=scaredycat]as I understand it, there is ZERO TAX BENEFIT. I pay say $16,000 a year in interest, then 3,500 in prop taxes, 19.5k, but i get 11k now as a std deduction, so it’s really just 8.5k more, so 30% of 8.5k = 2500, which is less than the prop taxes i otherwise wouldnt have to pay. so NO TAX ADVANTAGE. why does everyone at work say I am getting a TAX BREAK?[/quote]
You also now get to itemize, which means you can deduct your state income tax & personal property tax, among others.
