[quote=sdrealtor]Its not as easy as buying a house in FLA and claiming residence there. I have many friends going through this right now. You NEED to spend at least 183 days per year in FLA to claim residency and document it with plane tickets and credit card charges proving you were there. You wanna be a FLA resident? You have to actually live there then[/quote]
I have a friend in the same boat. He lives in his house near Tahoe for summer (and surrounding months) and in his house in Encinitas the rest of the year. He likes it, but I think if he could find a way around it, he might occasionally take advantage of it. If anybody is aware of some kind of trick or loophole, I’d be interested to hear it.
