Be careful of the residency requirements and make sure that you stop state income tax deductions that are being automatically withdrawn from your income sources. I bought in TV in Oct 2006, continued working in Massachusetts through March 2007. Moved to TV in Apr 2007, registered cars in Florida, but didn't sell house in MA until Sep 2007.
My last paycheck had a deduction for MA state income tax (my error) and my lump sum retirement bonus also had a deduction for MA state income tax . Two errors on my part there. I should have deferred that payment as well as changed the auto deduction for MA Income tax.
Once that money is in the state's hands, it is hard to pry their fingers apart.
As I said, my error, but beware.
