A second home in Arizona
- Arizona taxes a home the owner lives in as their primary residence as class three property. A home a qualifying relative lives in as their primary residence can be class three too. azleg.govOct 21
- To decide if a home is your primary residence, officials look at how long you live there each year, your voting precinct, your driver license address and where your vehicles are registered. azleg.govOct 21
- If the assessor thinks a class three home isn't your primary residence, you'll get a notice asking if it's a secondary residence or a rental. Don't answer within 15 days of the final notice and it's moved to class four, with a civil penalty equal to the prior year's state aid. azleg.govOct 21
- If you own residential rental property, you must keep your details on file with the county assessor and update them within ten days of a change. Owners who live outside Arizona must name a statutory agent who lives in the state. azleg.govOct 21
A second home in Minnesota
- Late penalties are higher on nonhomestead property: 4 percent at first, then another 4 percent, up to 12 percent. revisor.mn.govOct 21
- Under the rules for homes a relative lives in, property classed as seasonal residential recreational property while you or your spouse owned it won't be reclassed as a homestead unless you live in it as one. revisor.mn.govOct 21
- If one spouse lives elsewhere because of work, the assessor can't deny homestead treatment just because only one spouse lives in the home. The two workplaces and the two homes must each be at least 50 miles apart. revisor.mn.govOct 21
