If they don't have mortgage interest to consider then it is going to be pretty difficult to beat the standard deduction. I rent and can't claim anywhere near enough itemized deductions to beat the standard deduction. Even when I could deduct mortgage interest it was almost a push because I didn't buy as expensive of a house as most people at my income level. I'd rather spend less on my mortgage than get a bigger tax refund.
