What Kalamazoo & Portage Michigan home-buying costs are deductible?
Any points you or the seller pay to purchase your home loan are deductible for that year. Property taxes and interest are deductible every year.
But while other Kalamazoo & Portage Michigan home-buying costs (closing costs in particular) are not immediately tax-deductible, they can be figured into the adjusted cost basis of your home when you go to sell (any significant home improvements also can be calculated into your basis).

What is the first step when looking for a Kalamazoo & Portage Michigan home loan?
Most experts recommend that you should get prequalified for a loan first. By being prequalified, you will know exactly how much house you can afford.
Almost all mortgage lenders now prequalify and preapprove customers, and many of them can even do it on the Internet. You also can do your own affordability calculations; most recent consumer books on home buying include steps to doing so, as do various real estate Internet sites.
