[quote=Anonymous]If you plan on buying and holding into retirement there are a lot of perks, a few small wins financially.

We have a generational home with a view of Martha’s Vineyard. That is absolutely incredible. I will be the third generation to manage the house. If you want to rent it, make sure before you buy anything that you found a management company you like. If you buy in a place that is smaller and is not catered totally to the tourist set that it can be very hard to find a property management company that will be truly excellent. I still spend a lot of time handling Airbnb people from 1000 Miles away and it is very stressful.

We still travel quite a bit and we’ve started to use the house as a place to work remotely because our travel days are taken out by trips to new locations that we want to show the kids.

This has led to a perk I did not foresee, but now that the kids are enrolled in local camps they’re making a lot of local friends, and really feel part of the community here in a way that we never did.

YMMV but those are recent things I’ve thought about regards to having our second home that are new to the dynamic here, might be relevant [/quote]
