Home loans

I have a question - maybe you can help.  I completed a loan modification in May 2019 with my current lender to get a better interest rate (4.25% to 3.5%) and to shorten the term of the loan (30 Yr Fixed to 15 Year Fixed).  I paid a "modification fee" of 1% on the new principal balance.  Is this tax deductible?  Thank you.
