Hi All,
My question is, if my parent is going to lend me 100% of the purchase price of the house, is there any tax (like mortgage tax) involved? My parent also want me to take advantage of the interest deduction since they will have no income and I will have a high income. Is there any document we need to do to take advantage of that? Thank you for your help.

Hi gottabekin
If your parents are gifting the money, then there's a chance that they would have to pay gift tax for that amount. However, in my opinion, it would be better if you could consult a tax adviser and take his opinion in this issue.
Thanks.

Welcoem to the forum.
Also you mentined that yoru parnets will be funding 100% of the purchase price, in that case you will not have any loan and any interest to apy on the loan and you cannot deduct anything.
Good luck and feel free to ask
