im not an expert but i have looked into this before. while the requirements arent super clear, seems there is something about you must "sleep there" for so many days a year, i want to say like 10 or 11 months. that being said, if you make it your legal residence, to include mailing address, etc, and dont rent it out long term, i dont think you would have any issue. its not different than buying a personal residence then traveling for work 200 days a year (which i did). 

I'm hoping a tax expert can answer this question I have.
