Did You Buy a Home in 2017?

Unlocking Home-Ownership Tax Deductions: Tips for Maximizing Your Returns

Did you buy a home in 2017? If so, congratulations! One of the perks of home ownership: you’ll have several great tax deductions this year! You may be able to write off portions of your mortgage payment, your interest, insurance, property taxes, and mortgage insurance, to name a few.

If you bought a home with a Paris Group Realty, LLC agent in 2017, we recently sent you a final settlement statement for your real estate transactions from the year. You, or your accountant, can use this to document deductions – and lower your tax burden! If you have questions about your deductions or if you have not received your letter yet, please reach out to us. We’re always happy to help!
