Can landlords deduct mortgage payments or just the mortgage interest?

I have a rental unit on my property that is included with my mortgage. Can I claim that percentage of the mortgage as a deduction (based on square footage) or just the mortgage interest? (FYI: Yes I do have a tax professional but she is unavailable for a few days and I would just like to know for planning purposes). Thanks!!!

What is the difference between a mortgage and a home equity loan?

I own a home that is paid off but would like to take out a loan to fund some home improvements as well as help my parents pay off their home equity loan. Given this scenario can I take out a mortgage since mortgage rates are lower or am I limited to a home equity loan. I’m not interested in HELOC’s.

I’ve been looking into these a lot lately, but I’m having a hard time deciding what company to work with. Anyone work for one – or have a reverse mortgage – that they can recommend?

Where can I find others’ opinions on reputable mortgage companies?

We are looking to refinance our mortgage. We had a bad experience with a mortgage broker the first time around. Aside from the BBB, are there any websites where I can find others’ opinions/experiences with mortgage companies?

Having received some offers already, there are a few which look too good to be true. The majority of the offers so far are at the same, somewhat higher rate (which seems to be the normal rate for our area). I just want to do some background research on the few companies that are offering the lower rates before we accept one of them.
Thanks!

So Far this year I have paid over fifteen thousand dollars in interest on my mortgage. Is there a certain percentage that is refunded when I do my taxes? Also, are closing costs refundable too?
