Is interest paid on a construction loan for a new home considered deductible mortgage interest?
You can treat a home under construction as a home qualifying for the home interest deduction for a period of up to 24 months, but only if it becomes your qualified home at the time it is ready for occupancy. For more information, refer to Publication 936, Home Mortgage Interest Deduction; and Tax Topic 505, Interest Expense.
