[quote=Anonymous]"I can take care of the problem ASAP." Why? Because you're a contractor/plumber/electrician/roofer? "We chose buying over renting because we wanted to be able to pick up and go any weekend. We wanted our retired parents to be able to spend time there (and they would never have purchased the place themselves). We wanted to be able to host other friends there. We wanted to leave our stuff there and not have to cart anything to the beach when we decided to go. Psychologically owning it (vs renting) makes it feel like our haven away from our crazy lives/jobs in DC." The same is true of boat ownership. We could be renting one every summer weekend for less than the cost of ownership. [/quote]
