federal real property exemption

[newbie2]

The statute, 522(d)(1), reads as though it only applies to real property used "as a residence." Does anyone know if this can be applied to real property the debtor DOES NOT reside in when the debtor doesn't have any other real property?

No. (This is what we were told using Federal exemptions in a Michigan filing)
