Thanks for the information!
No, the 7.25% interest payments on your bond are not tax deductible. I am going to pay my bond off with my 3% home equity loan.Besides saving 4.25% on the loan, it's tax deductible.Just wish the real estate sales personnel would give buyers full disclosure on the bond issue right up front, it's not a deal breaker when you have all the facts.Congratulations on your purchase.
