The Beauty About Second Homes: They’re Now More Affordable
A friend of mine was in Deer Valley last week staying in a ski-in/ski-out four bedroom home that was on the market 2 years ago for $2.5 million. Today the same ski-in/ski-out house is on the market for $850,000, granted it’s a short sale but still, what a bargain! What a drop in price! People in other areas are complaining about 20% drops in price, this is nearly a 66% drop in price. What does this mean? To me it means if I had the money I think I’d be heading to Deer Valley. Seriously though, this economy is tough and tough on everyone but for those who still have money and have always wanted a second home there couldn’t be a better time to look than now. Real Estate is a good place to put your money and if you own your home, why not buy a second home in a place where you want to spend time? Most people dream of having a second home at some point in their lives why not make the move while the market is at the lowest.
