3 years....rented the first three years, increasing our time in TV from 3 months, to 4, to 5, and in the third year we bought a place in Poinciana.

We have no plans to stop the migratory behavior as we enjoy our time up north. DW and I are not in total agreement as to exactly when we'll leave and return, but it'll be close to 6 months in each location, with us spending just a hair longer in TV in order to maintain our Florida resident status for tax purposes.
