My thoughts are 1) I will have a fixed rate and not worry about it changing every 5 years thus helping me control my expenses a little better (of course aiming to secure a good rate whenever the rates hopefully come down), and 2) it will be amortized over 30 years and if I get a good rate, then my cash flow should increase by a decent amount.

However, I would like to go through a course or book or a hands on training to make sure "it is what it is". 

Of course they don't care, they have taxable amount reported to them, period.
