Ok guys first off I do not know if this is in the right area of the forum but here it goes. So can you right off the interest you pay on a travel trailer on your taxes. I was told you can as long it has it has a toilet and kitchen but I want to know if you really can. I will ask my tax guy for sure but I wanted to throw the question out there anyways.

Yes you can write off the interest just as if you bought a second home. I'm pretty sure you can write off any maintenance costs too, but, don't quote me on that.

I would give a local accountant a call and ask them. Because of all the different tax laws and such I would rather check and be sure than have IRS knocking on your door.

Thanks for the help I will call my tax guy do you think the people at the sales office would know the answer to that question? Just a thought.

On my old trailer I deducted the interest, and will be doing the same on my new trailer when I do my 2012 taxes. It's a federal deduction for a 2nd home. In some states you can deduct the RV sticker fee because it's labels as a property tax. Well in Idaho it's not, oh well.It's not a big deduction, but it's something.

There is your answer! You can deduct the interest as a second mortgage and also the taxes that are paid on not only your trailer license, but on all of your vehicles. Turbo Tax is your friend!!

The vehicle taxes are state dependent, even for federal taxes, because of how they are coded. There isn't a penny on the Idaho registration form for anything that is deductible.
