What is the safest legal way to establish residency in a lower taxable state while continuing to travel in your old state?
My current tax home and mortgage is in California. I’ve been thinking about buying a second home in a relatively less expensive state and establish residency while continuing to travel in California. What do I need to know? Do I need to document that I’m renting out my California home? Do I even need to buy in another state or should I just rent? Since it’s cheap I was thinking of just buying. I already know I need to be visiting my tax home every so often to maintain it as my tax home. I already have a consultation with travel tax scheduled tomorrow, I’m just thinking of ideas to bring up.
