There is discussion in US Congress that the tax deduction for mortgage interest may be eliminated.
Some proposals set a threshold of a certain maximum mortgage amount above which no deductions will be allowed, but also set a declining percentage of the total mortgage interest that is deductible, eventually running to zero, or non of the mortgage interest will be deductible.
The President's Debt Reduction Panel suggested a lifetime cap of 12% of the mortgage on a primary residential property up to $500,000 balance.
No word on whether the second home mortgage interest deduction will change or be eliminated, but don't count on it to remain as it is.
