long term renting a second home

[Chibueze Nwadigo]

Hello everyone my name is chibueze but i go by chip, I am  fairly new to real estate my wife and I just purchased our first home and working on the second.The second property will be listed as a second home to get a better interest rate but this property will be used as a long term rental. My question is how do I go about renting it out to a tenant long term while also following the guideline sent by IRS. 

Thanks for any feedback.
