Deductions & credits

Thanks guys.

I would listed as the owner and I would be the one with the mortgage in my name. However, he would be the one giving me money to make the payments.
He is trying to circumvent some other issue because he is currently making payments on another house.

So just to get the gist of this, if the mortgage is in my name, a no go?
If he puts me as the owner, but the mortgage is in his name, it's okay?

We are meeting with lawyers tomorrow. Should I go in asking anything specific?
