A Second Home as an Investment

What better way to diversify your portfolio than investing in a second home?  Just think, an investment that you can use and enjoy, all the time building equity.  You sure can’t use what you have in the stock market while it’s tied up there.  A second home can be used for vacations, tax write-offs, rental properties, and then - when you’re ready - you’re retirement home can be all in place and paid for.  Buying a second home now makes sense because the price of homes and land will continue to rise as it always has.  You will pay less now for your retirement home than you would in twenty years, and you will have it to use in the meantime.  More and more people are using second homes as investment opportunities - in 2006 the National Association of Realtors reported 1.07 million vacation homes sold.  That’s a 5% increase from the previous year…..what do they know that you don’t?  It’s a great investment, that’s what!
