Equity Sharing During the past few months there has been a huge debate in Washington regarding how to assist those with toxic loans, assuming they should get any assistance at all. Under equity sharing there can be an owner-occupant who lives on the property, a non-occupant owner such as a family member or investor and both owners can get tax breaks.
