Per the IRS, a motorhome or a boat will be considered a qualified residence if it is one of the two residences chosen by the taxpayer to deduct mortgage interest. A qualified residence must include a sleeping space, a toilet, and cooking facilities.

In addition, the loan must be secured by the vehicle.
