Those in favor of the bill saw it as a necessary piece of legislation that would help spur economic growth, and increase in jobs and investments. On the other side, critics saw it as an attempt to unravel social safety programs.<br \/>\nPolitical stance aside, however, there is one cohort who is wondering how this new law will affect them: those interested in buying a new home. As a December 2017 article in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.curbed.com\/2017\/12\/20\/16797590\/tax-bill-salt-real-estate-mortgage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Curbed<\/a> explains, there are a number of considerations that prospective homeowners should keep in mind as we move forward into the new year.<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/First-Time-homebuyers-using-an-IRA-photo.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-13339\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/First-Time-homebuyers-using-an-IRA-photo-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"First-Time-homebuyers-using-an-IRA-photo\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\"><\/a>How Prospective Homeowners May Be Affected by the Tax Bill<\/strong><br \/>\nOf course, the 2017 tax bill won\u2019t only affect prospective homebuyers throughout the country. Rather, the bill includes myriad provisions that ultimately affect every single American. But, one of the ways the tax bill will affect prospective homeowners is by capping the mortgage interest rate deduction at $750,000 (down $250,000 from what it was previously). This means that new homebuyers will be able to deduct interest on the first $750,000 of their mortgage debt, as opposed to the first million. This new change would apply to both first and second home purchases.<br \/>\nBut will this new cap in deductions affect all prospective homebuyers? Definitely not. The median home price nationwide is currently about <a href=\"http:\/\/money.cnn.com\/2017\/12\/17\/real_estate\/tax-bill-mortgage-property-tax-deductions\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">$254,000<\/a>. So unless you are shopping for homes in San Francisco or another expensive market, the new deduction limit shouldn\u2019t be a problem generally speaking.<br \/>\nHayden Homes is proud to offer some of the most elegant, modern and exciting new homes in the Pacific Northwest where the housing market is booming and the cost of living is great.
