Dreaming of Owning a Vacation Home?
Vacation Ownership
Do you like the idea of owning a vacation home with lakeshore but don’t want the burden and cost of repairs and upkeep?
Why pay for the entire vacation home if you only use it part-time? Home ownership consists of a divided interest in real estate. Simply put, it is buying your vacation home in partnership with other owners who share the cost with you. Vacation ownership has the appeal of defraying costs by sharing them with others and making good use of the time that you are not using the property. Owning a vacation home is great in theory, but can you justify the expense? Are you going to ever spend enough time at your vacation home to justify the mortgage or time spent maintaining the property? Vacation ownership provides a balance between the amount of time a vacation home is actually occupied and the costs and responsibilities of second home ownership. You also have to take into consideration that vacation homes are becoming prohibitively expensive—for example, a small lake cabin on Gull Lake can easily cost between $500,000 and $1,000,000 making it out of reach for the average family to afford. How does it work? Vacation home ownership is similar to any other real estate purchase, except that you are only purchasing a fraction of the property instead of the whole thing.
