It's always best to consult a tax adviser, (yes I know you hate hearing this disclaimer) but there are so many variables it's hard to give advice on this one. Bankrate.com has some good information on this. Copy this URL and paste it into your browser to read what they say.http://www.bankrate.com/brm/news/loan/19990203.asp Hope it helps.

The portion of repayments on mortgages that goes towards paying down the interest of your loan is tax deductible. Hope this helps.

You need to speak toyour CPA or tax professional.My 2 cents is HELOC interest is not tax deductible, if it was not part of the "purchase money." ... It isn't taxed as income, because this is borrowed money. .... Happy funding, Rudi
