Tax Benefits of Owning a Home

Homeowners get more tax benefits than non-homeowners.

There are great tax benefits of owning a home.

Home owners get additional tax benefits from the mortgage interest and the real estate taxes they pay. The amount of these deductions are usually larger than the tiny standard deduction non-homeowners get—that's because in addition to the mortgage interest and taxes paid, you can include state or local income taxes paid, charitable contributions and many more deductions!
