Are you aware of the tax advantages of buying a home? San Diego realtor Karlee Van Dyke, lists the top three tax benefits for homebuyers. Watch now and take advantage of the great benefits of homeownership!

Did you know that as a home buyer you have tax benefits that you can utilize that you might not be aware of that also save you? My name is Karlee Van Dyke with Whissel Realty and I'm here to share my three favorites.

Number one is your mortgage interest. So when you get a loan, you know you have an interest payment on that. That amount that you pay annually can be deducted against your taxable income up to $10,000.

Number two, you get to save on your property taxes, so the amount that you pay Uncle Sam for your property taxes can be deducted again with that $10,000 cap for the year.

And number three, you gain equity in your home. So you take a deduction on taxes property, a deduction on taxes mortgage, and then look at the equity gain year over year. And it is such a great benefit to you over renting, which is 100% interest. So take the benefit of home ownership, your taxable deductions, and also your equity gain, and it's a win-win for all.

My name is Karlee Van Dyke with Whissel Realty here to share with you the benefits of home ownership.
