If the interest expense is for payments on a mortgage on the home, and the home qualifies as his second residence, it is deductible as mortgage interest on Schedule A. If it is not his residence but is an investment, the interest may be deductible as investment interest on Schedule A. Use Form 4952 to determine if any is deductible.
