Lenders often have strict policies when a property is in a FEMA-designated disaster area to protect their risk, even if the property isn’t directly impacted.

If I got a home equity loan for Property 1 and used the proceeds as downpayment for Property 2 and then got a 2nd loan for the remaining 75% purchase price for Property 2, when I sell Property 2, can I use the Property 1 loan as part of the cost basis for computing Property 2 capital gains?

However, the MLS in San Diego as well as the appraisers I've worked with do.You'll definitely want to check to see how the topic is addressed in the particular locale the property is in. 

Insurance- personal property.
