Acquisition debt created by divorce:

Often a divorce involves one spouse buying-out the other's interest in the residence. This is often done by placing a second mortgage on the residence for the buy-out (this debt is not created at the time of purchase, nor is it classified as substantial improvement debt). This new debt is also considered acquisition debt.

However, the total debt may not exceed the fair market value of the residence being acquired. See blog on Primary Residence Interest deduction
