Can You Write Off Kitchen Remodel?

Short answer: No, but it raises your cost basis and reduces taxable gain when you sell.

Keep every invoice; the home sale exclusion is $250,000 ($500,000 joint).

Records to keep: Keep receipts, statements (1098, 1098-T, 1099, W-2G), and a note of what each cost was for. Compare itemizing to the 2026 standard deduction before you claim.
