Overview: The home shelters one from the elements, but it is also a valuable tax shelter. The IRS places a limit on the amount of debt treated as home equity debt for deduction. Qualifying capital improvements are those that increase a home's value or prolong home's life, including a fence, driveway, new room, addition, swimming pool, garage, porch or deck, new built-in appliances, insulation, new heating/cooling systems, a new roof, landscaping and the like.
