Is private mortgage insurance (PMI) tax deductible in 2007?
Answer:Yes, it is. Private mortgage insurance (PMI) is tax deductible in 2007 through 2010, for all loan transactions closed in the 2007 - 2010 interval. Taxpayers with mortgages signed during this period, with household income of $100,000 through $109,000 are eligible for tax deduction. However, borrowers with income $110,000 and above do not enjoy tax deductibility benefits.
Tax deductible private mortgage insurance (PMI) in 2007-2010 has great benefits to the borrowers.
Now that PMI is tax deductible, it is a safe way to buy a house without saving 20% for the down payment. If borrower-paid, private mortgage insurance (PMI) can be cancelled, and it lasts for a shorter time than a second mortgage. Paying PMI instead of taking another lien on the property preserves equity, and makes mortgages better available to low and moderate income borrowers.
Final piece of advice: Monitor your credit report and score regularly, to ensure there are no inaccuracies or unauthorized activity. Your credit report and score are the two major methods that creditors and lenders use to make a credit decision about you. Higher scores usually mean lower interest rates, which will save you money.
