Because you got the 1098, it most likely qualifies as a secured property. For the Home Mortgage deduction, an interest in the property via deed qualifies. If it were a membership or a contract for points type of timeshare, the interest would not be deductible. Box 8 can have Vacation ownership as the description so once again the loan is secured by your property interest.
