Seller-paid points: a neglected marketing technique; developers of single-family housing can give buyers a tax advantage that serves them better than a price reduction

Article Abstract:

Seller-paid points is a neglected technique for the marketing of single-family housing. Under Revenue Procedure 94-27, the IRS allows buyers of single-family homes to deduct the points charged for a mortgage in the year the home is bought. More cost-effective than a price reduction, seller-paid points allow developers of single-family housing to give homebuyers a significant tax advantage.
