Yeah and an adjusted married-filing-jointly deduction of $30,000. W.T.F. That's a lot of money, and at least provides less of an incentive for getting a big mortgage (not that the mortgage deduction should ever be an incentive, but people are dumb with math). I have a decent sized mortgage, and a moderately high property tax bill, and I don't even sniff $30,000 in deductions. Simplifies my life quite a bit, actually, in addition to lowering the overall burden. Edit: And his promise to destroy the regulatory state could be good for our business. I have a lot to potentially gain out of a Trump administration. Hate him, but I suppose I'll try to make hay while the sun shines.
