Issues to Consider When Buying a Vacation Rental Property
Buying a vacation home as an investment property can be very different from investing in a typical rental property. So is it the right choice for you?
For starters, a vacation rental is normally leased by multiple renters over the course of a year, whereas a typical rental home might only be leased once annually. But handling multiple renters isn’t the only challenge involved in owning a vacation rental property. You also need to remember that, as an investment, a vacation home can’t be owner-occupied for much of the year, or else it can qualify as a second home for tax purposes. Watch this episode of Big Money Real Estate for Ilyce’s run down on all the considerations involved in owning a vacation property as an investment.
