One Big Beautiful Bill, What does it mean for Real Estate?

THIS IS NOT A POLITICAL POST!!

So you have probably heard the OBBBA was passed and you may be interested to hear there are some great pieces to help support Real Estate and Homeownership.

1) SALT: A few years ago when Federal Tax laws changed it limited State and Local Taxes as a write off to a measly $10,000. In higher tax area's that severely limited the taxes that homeowners could write off. The SALT limit has been temporally increased from $10,000 to $40,000 until 2029 adding back tax deductibility that many of us lost.

2) PMI as a write off:  The Mortgage insurance write off is now permanent. So if you will be confident in knowing that you will not lose that write off if you are eligible. This reduces the effective cost of MI for low down payment loans.

3) Mortgage Interest Deduction: This was also made permanent with the Mortgage interest deduction cap at $750,000 in acquisition debt. 

All of the above have the potential to make homes more affordable.

**CONSULT YOUR TAX ADVISOR: There will always be cases where a standard deduction might be better than itemized deductions or where write offs are no longer eligible at certain income levels.

Hello Robert - when I hear/read permanent, I wonder if a revised definition* of the word is in order.   i

Michael Jacobs - is anything really permanent? I guess the permanence is it is harder to change it once it's in a bill.  So many of these things over the years had expiration dates that needed to be extended or they would be lost. I'll take the good news when we can get it!
