Yes, if this is your second home (because you pay everything and it is in your name AND you live there as well as your second home) then it would count as living with you. However, if YOU do NOT physically live there, then no, it does not count as living with you.
Either way, if your adult child made more than $5,050, even if they do count as living with you, you would not be able to claim them as a dependent.
