Yes, it would be a cashout. Depending on what the Equity Loan was previously used for will determine whether or not that portion of the loan has tax-deductible interest or not.
If the loan was used for anything other than to buy, build or substantially improve your home the interest on this portion of your mortgage will not be deductible.
