Vacation Homes & Second Homes

sunriver photo 2Aone time second homes or vacation homes were the exclusive realm of the rich.  In recent years many middle income families have purchased vacation homes. Sometimes it is a cabin in the woods and sometimes it is a luxury home.

Buyers are lured by the thought of acquiring a home that not only provides an investment but also the family vacation throughout the year. Often buyers purchased a second home to provide a place to get away from the crowding of  cities. Not that long ago the only place you found vacation rentals were in a resort. Today you will find vacation and second homes scattered throughout communities. Look at how much online rentals have grown over the years. Vacation rentals are a popular way for vacationers to enjoy more of an area and feel at home.

Bigger Is Not Necessary

A second home or vacation home does not have to be bigger than what you have at home or even nicer. A great vacation home or second home simply has to fit your budget and needs.

Much of Central Oregon allows an owner to rent out a vacation home on a nightly basis.  There can be tax benefits for this investment. If you plan to provide nightly rentals or just use as personal use the tax laws are different. You will want to consult your tax specialist to see what is best for your situation.
