This idea doesn't seem well thought out - have you run through the financials with someone in terms of cost, taxes, upkeep, all related expenses...and in relationship to maintaining a residence in CA too?
Why would you say that? Do you have inside knowledge of my life and my thought processes?
Very easy. It has a built-in pump with a plug tucked inside a little compartment on the side of the bed. Just plug it in to an outlet, and it inflates in a few minutes.

I am not sure what "long stay hotels" run, but the hotel I have been staying at runs close to $300 per night!
I have no idea how much a "long stay hotel" costs in NY.
In some cities, they normally are cheaper than comparable hotels (sometimes a lot cheaper), plus have a discount if you stay a week or more and/or a month or more. In addition, the hotel rooms have everything that you need, such as stove, refrigerator, dishes, pots and pans, etc. to live there.

I spent 30 years working in NYC and those apts are NOT cheap. Then when you want to dump them, they can be tough too.

You already admitted you didn't know about residency requirements...apparently hadn't read about tax laws until now...wasn't aware of extended stay hotels...yes, I'm right to question just what you HAVE worked out ahead of time.
Your concerns about a few days in a hotel to get set up seem to pale in light of the arrangements necessary to actually find and finance a co-op but as long as you have the big stuff figured out, hash out the details of setting up an air mattress.

You are very rude.
I am following my process.
I am grateful that I have learned what I have learned on this thread.
You have no idea what else I know or don't know.
Total hater I hope to avoid the likes of.
