@wifemomcpa100 You get one mileage deduction pass on all mileage for the calendar year whether or not you itemize, standard or self employ. Just let your mileage be deductible at the IRS rate.
@versteeml@thBookOfMatthew@theficouple Pay what you can to avoid PMI, usually 20% down.

You might be better off with ETFs.
