Looking for experiences from people who have worked out of state..
I am looking at a job near Charlotte, NC but live in upstate SC about 2.5 hrs away.
I would come home on the weekends and stay in Charlotte during the week..
My main questions are:
Did you rent a place?
Buy a second home there?
What kind of tax deductions/incentives did you get, etc?
I don't know if the company will give me an allowance for living expenses yet or not. For the sake of this topic, lets assume they don't. I am trying not to move my family (yet) because my wife has a year left in nursing school. I hate the thought of wasting money on rent, so maybe buy a small place to live in while in the area then rent it out and buy my family a place we really want in 2-3 years if we decide to relocate? I really love where we live now and would prefer SC to stay our home either way if possible.
Thanks
