No.
If you are buying a primary residence, the interest on the mortgage (for most people) can be listed on your Schedule A 0 Itemized deductuins. If you have a 30 year mortgage, you initially are paying interest, and as you get near the end of your amortization period, your payment will be mostly used to pay down your mortgage, and there will be very little interest.
But when your balance dwindles, you will br brttre off taking the standard deduction, rather than itemizing.
If you sell property and take back a second mortgage, the interest is taxable income, although it is unearned income and not subject to Social Security (FICA) and Medicare taxes. And if you have borrow money in order to take back that second mortgage, the interest you pay can offset the interest you earn.
