Home equity loan to buy second property
If I took a home equity loan on my primary residence and used it to purchase a 2nd home, can the interst be deducted?
No, the proceeds of the home equity loan must be used to 'buy, build, or improve' the home that is securing the loan. This is the case from tax year 2018 through 2025 due to a tax law change.
