The traditional mortgage is only for stationary property. It's suited for long-term real estate investments. Chattel loans are for property that can be easily moved. They're also an option for borrowers who want their loans approved faster and with shorter repayment times.
By chattel mortgage, personal property is recorded in the Chattel Mortgage Register as a security for the performance of an obligation. If the movable, instead of being recorded, is delivered to the creditor or a third person, the contract is a pledge and not a chattel mortgage.
Referred to as the Mortgage Interest Statement, the 1098 tax form allows business to notify the IRS of mortgage interest and points received in excess of $600 on a single mortgage. For individuals, the 1098 form allows them to provide documentation when claiming the mortgage interest deduction.
Beginning with tax year 2018, the IRS requires all educational institutions to report qualified tuition and related expenses using the payments received method rather than the amounts billed method. As such, Box 2 will be blank.
