Primary residence vs rental?

Matt Blutowski

I am contemplating buying my 1st property in Florida this summer. I spend most of my time working overseas, and do don't own a home/apartment in the USA.

If I plan to rent the home during the winter months, and live in it during the summer months, AND I have no other home in the USA, can I seek financing for a primary residence, or is this a rental property?

If we buy as a primary, then decide to rent it all year, is this doable?
