VACATION HOMES ARE BECOMING A REALITY FOR MORE
HOMEOWNERS…

Whether it is a lake front cottage or a log cabin in the woods, a vacation home often
seems to be a dream that only the wealthy can afford. But these days, you don’t have
to be a millionaire to own one.

A nationwide survey shows the median household income of second-home owners is
$46,500. And according to recent statistics, there were 7.2 million U.S. Households
in the 1990’s that owned some kind of recreational property or second home for
vacation purposes. That number is expected to at least double and possibly triple over
the next ten years. With today’s continued low interest rates, the tax advantages a
second home can bring, and a wide selection of areas experiencing solid home price
appreciation,
this is an excellent time to consider purchasing a second home as an investment – and
a great getaway place.

When searching for your second home, remember to investigate the area thoroughly.
Ask a local Realtor such as Molony Real Estate, or the local Chamber of Commerce to
provide information packets, maps, and brochures. Take time to visit the area several
times – a few months prior to and during its peak season(s). Are the crowds  
unbearable? Is the weather unpredictable?

Speak with a local Realtor such as Molony Real Estate, regarding current and past
home prices. Knowing the area’s sales history will help determine the market value of
the homes and effectively predict their appreciation potential.

Once you have settled on a community, work with your Realtor and lending
institution to determine how much you can afford. Drive around the town and its
neighborhoods. Experience the day-to-day activity around potential properties. Keep
in mind you may decide to retire to the area one day. Will the property serve two
purposes – that of a vacation and retirement home?

Remember, vacation homes remain a good investment and provide substantial
deductions on yearly tax forms if they meet certain criteria. As the laws are ever-
changing, complex and detailed, consult your Molony Real Estate agent, who works
with a tax attorney's and certified accountants, to help you calculate the tax benefits
of owning a second home.

Relaxing in your own home in that dream vacation spot is not out of your reach. Call
Molony Real Estate today, we can put you in contact with a Molony Real Estate
Realtor experienced in the areas of your interest. 608-592-7306 or 608-445-8464
