Want to turn mortgage interest into a tax deduction? 👀
Here are 3 strategies Canadians should know:
1. The Smith Manoeuvre 📈
Using a readvanceable mortgage/HELOC to invest, with the goal of converting non-deductible mortgage debt into potentially deductible investment debt over time.
2. Debt Swap 🔁
Using existing non-registered investments to pay down your mortgage, then reborrowing to reinvest — creating a clearer link between the borrowed money and income-producing investments.
3. Rental Cash Damming 🏘️
Using rental income to pay down your personal mortgage, while using a properly traced HELOC to pay rental expenses — potentially creating deductible rental interest.
Comment “TAX” and I’ll send you more information.
