🏡 Changes Ahead for Homeowners 🏡
The new One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) locked in some important rules around mortgage interest and insurance:
• Mortgage interest is capped at loans up to $750,000 (unless you’re grandfathered in with an older loan).
• Starting in 2026, you may be able to deduct mortgage insurance premiums—but only if your income is under certain limits.
• Older “grandfathered” mortgages (from before late 2017) can still qualify for the higher $1 million cap.
