Renting a primary residence. Need a straight answer.

Apr 04, 2008 1 Replies

If I rent out my primary residence for half a year, and go travel, do I have to check the box that asks yes or no if I rented the house for more than 14 days. My accountant says that's only for vacation homes and since this was my personal residence, I don't have to check the box. True or False?


False. Any house can be a rental property, whether it's a plain old house or a familiar home.
