Vacation properties are not just for the elite and wealthy! If you were a rich man… Stop right there! Just because you’re not rich doesn’t mean you don’t want a second home to get away from life as you know it. Whether you dream of living on the beach with sand between your toes or getting away from civilization in a mountain cabin, you don’t have to be a Rockefeller to enjoy your dream home.
In Profit From Your Vacation Home Dream: The Complete Guide to a Savvy Financial and Emotional Investment, vacation home buying expert Christine Hrib Karpinski shows you how to not only make your vacation home dream a reality, but to get others to pay your mortgage when you’re not enjoying your home away from home. By renting your vacation home using Karpinski’s recipe for successful vacation home ownership, you will soon be on the road to buying, enjoying and profiting from your second, third – and even fourth home.
