Sub2 tax question - Posted by Les

They can still take the deduction for interest and taxes paid, they just have to calculate it manually and indicate on the tax return that no statement was received; this is done by any taxpayer with a land contract, CFD, private mortgage? in other words lots of people. No worries.

If I purchase a house sub2 today, the original owners obviously do not get the tax deduction from the date I purchased it moving forward. however what about the interest deduction due from the first 8 months of the year?
i.e. if they sold the house conventionally they would get a statement of taxes paid for the 8 months so they could deduct it, how is this normally handled in a sub2 situation? I hope I was clear.
Thanks!

Maybe you could figure the amount for you and for the seller? Make a copy of the 1098? you receive, write his amount on his copy and send it off.
