Help answer the question about home equity

Is the interest on $200k home equity loan used to buy a new primary residence deductible on Sch A.?
We are planning to rent our existing home and pull $200k equity from that home to buy a new primary residence. I am not clear about the $100k deductible limit on the home-equity loans. Can I deduct it on Sch A or against the rental income and is the deductible equity loan capped at $100k. We file married jointly and our AGI is $160k.

First of, you are NOT going to build any equity through any interest only loan since the pirncipal is not being paid down. Until the loan begins to amortize can you build any equity.

Second, an LLC will allow you seperate some of your assets from you, personally, in the event of any legal action. This can safeguard you primary residence BUT most lenders give recourse loans so that even if the primary borrower is the LLC, you are on the hook personally as a guarantor…so they can come after your personal assets…….

Third….this is the worst time to get financing for speculative deals.

If you have assets, bring the mortgages current.

If the property was owned jointly, you must have signed something to make the liens for the lines of credit valid or else there has been some kind of fraud.

Hello, what happens if an identical house is sold for 500k. Could the bank ask for money back (75% of 500k) immediately?

trust your heart, youll do fine

what kind of mic are you usings it sounds really good?

Careful on the appraised value & immediate equity statement….if the appraisal is more than a few months old, it's likely meaningless today. Otherwise, good job reporting what you have to work with.

I agree there's probably no hurry to purchase, but if you really like the house, it may be gone if you try to time the market. If you haven't already found one, suggest you work with a reputable Buyer's Agent to ensure you have an advocate for your side of the transaction. BA's typically won't cost you anything (as they are paid via commission split with the seller's agent at closing), and they will be able to give you all of the info you'll need to make an INFORMED decision on what to offer for the home.

Your BA should also be able to provide you with a short list of reputable lenders and mortgage brokers who will work with you to see how much you qualify to borrow & what your monthly mortgage situation would look like. Take the max amount you qualify for and work your way DOWN into a price range that YOU feel comfortable with – stick to that price range and resist the temptation to overspend. If the home you like is above your means, negotiate it down into your comfort zone, or walk away – period.

Prior to creating your offer, you really should know:

- tax value on the home
- how long home has been on the market
- what comparable properties have sold for recently
- what current owners paid for home
- how long they've owned it
- if any improvements have been made
- seller's motivation for selling

There are a couple of ways to finesse the offer to your advantage as well. See some of my prior posts for info on leveraging seller contributions to 'buy down' your mortgage rate for slightly lower monthly payments but significant long-term savings. My credentials are on source website below; feel free to ask questions.

Hope this helps, and good luck!!!

ps: congratulations on being blessed with your "…3 month year old" < ha ha >:-)

No banks are willing to finance this type of inter-family purchase. You need to go to a bookstore and get a deed. Have the owners sign the house over to you. Give them whatever money you have today. You probably have $1,000 to make the sale "official". You are now the owner. You have to make payments to the seller for one year. If you make one year of on-time payments, every bank in town will be anxious to loan you the money to pay off the family member. You will start to get the refinance letters within one week after you own the house. If you wait one year you will get the best offers.

With a balloon payment there is nothing to modify, no interest rate to alter.

You need to go with your original plan and refinance this property. Since you have plenty of equity this will not be a problem.

An attorney will just take your money.

BANK OF AMERICA IS THE MOST CORRUPT BANK IN THE COUNTRY!. Bank of America harassed me, ruined my credit, charged me over $800 in fees over a 10 day period, tried to humiliate me, and never stopped calling my house- all because of $50 overdraft!!
In one day I was charged over $250 in overdraft fees because of a company that took advantage of my bank account- BofA charges more fees than any bank in the World!

No it is not, the vale of the house is always fake, the bank might say 1.5mil, but if you can only get a bit or price of 1.3mil then it is vale is 1.3 mil. If you get 1.7mil then it’s vale is 1.7 mil.

(That’s because you don’t ACTUALLY have that 1.5 mil yet, you have it when you sell the house) No you won’t because u can not know its price untill someone pays you a price.

If you may return, keep it. Hopefully you can pretty much cover your mortgage with what you would charge for rent (and I think you might be able to, Texas still has low pricing, therefore your mortgage should be relatively low). And Texas is a long term state, but property value IS going up.
Before you go, you can also interview and choose the renter yourself, which is nice, instead of relying on a property management company to find you one.
Your loan for your new house (since you will be living there) will obviously be a primary residence loan, so that wold be up to a lender to work out the two. You have already closed escrow on your Texas house as primary, so yes, you would have to produce a rental agreement of some kind and let the underwriters at the bank sort it out. (You definitely have it in your favor that you are telling the truth on all this, most investors, myself included, have had to jump throughhoops and crazyness with double loans in other states and owner occupied clauses, etc.). You will also haveto show proof of work in the state, etc. to close primary on your CO home.
Generally though, the most expensive of the two homes you own willend up being your primary residence (in the bank's eyes). You need to go over all of this with a loan officer (a smart and talented one who knows what they are talking about).
The $25k in equity may not be as much as you think. Once you sell, minus 6% for brokerage fees and another $2k or so (I'm not familar with TX title fees) for sellers closing costs.

ya but schooling should have no base on if you get a lone or not.

what is the title of the previous part and the title after this part….kindly answer…

Question:
bank says you can borrow up to 75% of home’s worth=$1.25m

but in this case, you can only borrow $375k because of mortgage?

If you did not have mortgage, would you have $1.125m is cash and liability?

That’s mess up you know. It causes recession and massive corporate bankruptcies. This country… We got idiot bankers, and greedy executive screwing everything up. Now, they can’t fix it the way it was.

We will be heading dark ages in few years.
