Description:

This PodCast concerns income taxation where equitable ownership of a home is involved.  Equitable ownership of a home can make a eligible for a deduction for mortgage interest and taxes -  even when the taxpayer is not the legal owner. 

While the taxpayer in the case of Nair v. Commissioner, TC Summary Opinion 2007-116, did not have such ownership, the opinion does outline the requirements a taxpayer would need to demonstrate to have such equitable ownership.

Mr. Nair's failed attempt to obtain a casualty loss deduction also offers some insights into the issue of establishing basis for items that are involved in a casualty loss deduction.
