I am a resident of Florida where I live more than 7 months out of the year. I don't own property. When I am there I stay with my elderly parents. The rest of the year I am in Washington, DC. I want to buy a small apartment there for when I am there for 4-5 months. I know I won't be able to take the Homestead Exemption on the property taxes since it won't be my primary residence, but will I have to pay taxes to DC? I don't plan to rent the apartment so there won't be income. But I am concerned having a property there will make me a "resident" and I'll have to pay income tax for my job in FL. Thanks for any info you can provide.
