Can I claim the purchase of a mobile home on my taxes?
Nathan Sanders
Since your mobile home is a home, you may be eligible to deduct the interest that you pay on it if you itemize your deductions. You can only write off the interest on two homes, so if your mobile home is your third home, you’ll be out of luck. If you used a credit card to buy it, the interest won’t be deductible.
