Be aware that the IRS offers write-offs on the mortgage interest for primary residences and not on additional properties. Similarly, financial experts do not recommend mortgaging primary residences to pay for second homes or investment properties. Therefore, it is important to shop in a comfortable price range.
A second home is considered an investment property if the owner spends less than two weeks a year in it. The owner must attempt to rent the property for the rest of the year.As of 2010, the tax rules regarding second homes, vacation homes, and investment-class second homes allow owners to rent the property for fourteen nights without reporting any income.
