    Mortgage Interest

    Taxpayer has a rental. They have a home equity loan secured by their main home to finance major repairs on the rental. Is this interest deductible on Sche E. I am interpreting by the example in the book on page 4-11 that this is business interest and the answer is yes. Thanks

    Yes, if the loan proceeds were used on the rental property you can elect to deduct the interest expense on 1040 Sch-E. Pub 527 & Pub 936.
