    No Starting in 2018, mortgage interest on the total principal of as much as $750,000 in qualified residence loans can be deducted, down from the previous limit of  $1,000,000.   However, higher limitations ($1 million ($500,000 if married filing separately)) apply if you are deducting mortgage interest from indebtedness incurred before December 16, 2017.
