Closing costs are not deductible, but the following expenses are deductible if you itemize deductions:

  • Mortgage interest
  • Property taxes paid by yourself and from an escrow account
  • Points or loan origination fees
  • Mortgage insurance

You can locate this information on your HUD-1 Settlement Statement.

Please view the Turbo Tax FAQ below for more information about home ownership deductions.
