Can you deduct mortgage interest if the loan over $750000?

the couple did cash out refinance of their principal home in 2021, the total loan $900000.

The used about $250000 cash as down pay to buy a rental property. Can they deduct interest from mortgage of $650000.

then  allocate interest portion from the $250000 loan used on rental to rental property?

See if this might answer your question:

Note that weird things might happen if/when the TCJA $0 limit on home-equity interest expires and goes back to $100K.
