How TurboTax Deluxe Helps You With Home Owner Deductions
1. Mortgage Interest. Interest that you pay on your mortgage is tax deductible, within limits. For married filers filing jointly, you can deduct interest on a maximum of $1 million in mortgage debt, $500,000 if your filing single.
2. Home Improvement Loan Interest. You can deduct the interest a loan to make substantial home improvements. The work must be a "capital improvement" and not ordinary repairs. Qualifying capital improvements are improvements that increase the home's value.
3. Mortgage Points. Closing costs usually include a lending fee called "points." One point is equal to 1% of the loan value. You can fully deduct all points from a primary home mortgage purchase. Points from refinancing a mortgage are also deductible over the life of the loan, not all at once. Homeowners who refinanced can immediately write off the remainder of point from the old mortgage.
4. Equity Loan Interest. In some instances you can deduct some of the interest you pay on a home equity loan or line of credit. However, the IRS limit is $100,000 (or $50,000 for each spouse as a married couple filing separate. Or the total of your home's fair market value minus certain outstanding debts against it as described in IRS Publication 936, Home Mortgage Interest Deduction.
5. Property Taxes. Property taxes are fully deductible from your income so long as they have already been paid in the tax year being filed. City or state property tax refund reduces your federal deduction by a like amount.

7. Selling Fees. TurboTax Deluxe can help you reduce your taxable capital gain by the amount of your selling costs. Real estate broker's commissions, administrative costs, title insurance, advertising costs, legal fees, and inspection fees are all considered selling fees.
8. Capital Gains Exclusion. As a married couple filing jointly you can claim an exemption for up to $500,000 of profit on the sale of your personal residence provided it was used for that purpose for two of the prior five years. Single filers can claim up to $250,000.
