No for many reasons. One, you depreciate tangible assets...a loan is not an asset...if you purchased additions to the property, those would be assets you could depreciate. Cash is intangible. If anything, taking money out of a property would decrease your basis, not increase it! You create the depreciable asset by buying it...not the opposite. You understand you have to recapture depreciation at ordinary rates on sale too, don't you?
Gain on sale of asset is occured when actual value of asset is less then the sale value of asset.
