Investors & landlords

factors to consider:

your place of employment or distance to it old vs nrew

where family members live - that includes you and since you are renting A, I would say B

address currently used for such things as tax returns, driver's license, voting, bills and correspondence, auto registration - this would probably be B 

nearest to your banks (?)

is the move to B permanent for the foreseeable future (ie as of now no intent to return to A)

the actual tern used is principal not primary 

 

 

 

since A was rented more than 14 days, the rent is reportable on schedule E. expenses must be prorated

depreciation must be taken ( use the lower of your cost or FMV when you started to rent it).
