If you are renting your home and living with your boyfriend at his home why won't your insurance company cover your home?
It is possible that you have to be occupying the house to be covered by insurance. They see it as unprotected by the owner and anything could happen to it. I cant possibly be the first person to try and insure a property Im not occupying. Homeowners insurance covers your home, and a house you are renting to someone else is not your home. It can be insured, but you need a different policy.
Can mortgage interest and insurance be deducted on a rental home even if someone doesn't own another home and is renting too?
Here are opinions and advice from FAQ Farmers: * It depends. This is from Tax Topic 505 at IRS.gov: "Your main home is where you live most of the time. It can be a house, cooperative apartment, condominium, mobile home, house trailer, or houseboat that has sleeping, cooking and toilet facilities. ... A second home can include any other residence you own, and treat as a second home. You do not have to use the home during the year. However, if you rent it to others, you must also use it as a home during the year for more than the greater of 14 days or 10 percent of the number of days you rent it, for the interest to qualify as home mortgage interest." * I don't know what the laws are like in your jurisdiction but around here a second home purchased for the purpose of renting is considered a rental property. Everything including mortgage, property taxes, and utilities etc are totally written off. Even maintentance, yard cutting, repairs are all written off too. * This is not tax advice but this is governed by the IRC. If the primary purpose is rental then interest and other ordinary and necessary expenses are all deductible.
