The proposed change won&#8217;t affect any customers borrowing less than $500,000.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<h3>It&#8217;s Just a Plan. Plans Change.<\/h3>\n<p>Anyone borrowing more than that should first understand that the plan released today may not become law, or the plan may change to keep the current mortgage-interest deduction, which is popular.<\/p>\n<h3>But If Passed Later in the Year, the Plan Would Take Effect Tonight<\/h3>\n<p>But in its current form, the new proposed cap would apply to a customer who has not entered into &#8220;a binding contract&#8221; to buy a home by today, November 2. A purchase agreement with inspection and appraisal contingencies is still likely to be considered binding.<\/p>\n<h3>Eliminating the Tax Break Could Cost Affected Customers a Few Thousand Dollars a Year<\/h3>\n<p>Under the proposed change, if a customer enters into a contract to buy a home after November 2, and borrows $750,000 to buy that home, for tax purposes she will only be able to deduct from her taxable income interest on the first $500,000 of that loan.<br \/>\nIf a customer is in a binding contract by the end of today, she will be able to deduct from her taxable income all $750,000; even if the plan passes as-is, the current law&#8217;s $1-million cap would remain in effect for sales under contract by today. Depending on the interest rate of the loan and other factors, this difference could amount to a few thousand dollars in higher taxes per year for the customer in contract after November 2.<\/p>\n<h3>The Plan May Lower Other Taxes<\/h3>\n<p>Of course other parts of the plan, if passed, could lower a customer&#8217;s taxes in other ways, unrelated to the timing of her home purchase. This note isn&#8217;t to agree or disagree with the proposed plan, but only to explain its potential impact on our customers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This morning, Redfin CEO Glenn Kelman sent the below email to Redfin real estate agents to help them address customer questions about the tax-reform plan Congress unveiled today<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13416,"featured_media":60030,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[43,51],"tags":[83,74,77],"dashboard":[],"coauthors":[],"class_list":["post-60021","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-housing-equality-policy","category-policy","tag-design-and-decor","tag-mortgage-tips","tag-taxes"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.7 (Yoast SEO v27.7) -
