What are the limits to mortgage interest deduction?

Jason asked:


My wife and I current do not owe a mortgage on our house (~$600K). I am considering getting a ($400K) home equity loan / mortgage. Our income would easily support the monthly payment. My questions are 1. Will the interest from the $400K loan be tax deductible or is interest on cash-out loans over $100K not eligible for deduction (I’ve heard)? 2. Will points on this load also be deductible? Thanks.
