Will a home equity loan qualify us for the 1st time buyer tax credit?

We were put on the deed of a home while we were “renting to own” (1 yr) then all of a sudden the landlord wanted the rest of the cash. So we got out a home equity loan with the house to pay him what we owed him. Would this qualify us for the First-Time Buyer Tax Credit?
