Is HELOC Interest deductible for taxes? In this video, I'm going to answer that question as well as dispel some common myths about HELOC interest not being tax-deductible! - Especially when using a HELOC to pay off your mortgage!
And I often get this question quite a bit... "But Sam, using a HELOC to pay off the mortgage could mean that I wouldn't be able to deduct the interest I'm paying, therefore, I don't think it makes sense to use a HELOC to pay off my mortgage faster and save money on interest?"
I probably get this question nearly every day so I'll answer this question once and for all!

Now right out of the gate, when people often ask me about the tax deductibility on HELOCs, they're often referring to a 2nd lien position HELOC. People automatically assume that HELOCs are not tax-deductible because they heard some other YouTubers say this.
Now, it is true that interest in 2nd lien position HELOC is not deductible when used to pay off the mortgage faster.
Prior to 2018, the tax laws were different from where the interest could have been deducted for a 2nd lien HELOC.
However, my argument to this is that if you're using the accelerated banking strategy to pay down your mortgage faster and saving a large sum of money, wouldn't it be better that you pay a little bit of taxes to have saved thousands?
Remember, a loan that has a 30-year amortization can cost quite a bit of money on interest.
Unfortunately, the logic for some people is to pay the interest just so that they can get a write-off.
It's kinda like my friend who bought a $45,000 truck just to get a tax write off on this business. But there is a way of making all of your HELOC interest deductibles.
There's a little less known version of the HELOC which is the 1st lien HELOC. If there's a 2nd lien HELOC, well... There's also gotta be a first.
A 1st lien HELOC is essentially the only loan on a house. Some of my students on our program use a 1st lien HELOC to replace their mortgage completely.
By doing so, they can take advantage of the revolving nature of the line of credit and get the interest deduction.
Many of them will end up paying off their HELOC in 5-10 years on average and potentially saving THOUSANDS of dollars on interest. They also get to deduct the little interest they would pay over the 5-10 years average.
Plus, they have an open HELOC to use for buying rental properties thus increasing their income as well.
