My wife and I bought a vacation rental home on Cape Cod together before we were married. Aside from getting married shortly after, it was the best decision we made. Soon after closing, we had the home rented for that summer and consistently had it bringing in revenue for years. We learned on the fly and hit some bumps in the road over time. Our 3rd bathroom is under construction right now and a lot of the rental income has gone into improving the home. I have worked with a lot of buyers who are looking. to use their home for a summer rental. I enjoy telling our stories and lessons learned from renting on the Cape. I also love seeing the success they have in transforming dated homes into money-making properties. One great example is THE HAVEN Yarmouth. I have learned some lessons but I am not an expert! We are lucky to have experts and years of experience in renting and managing on the Cape right in our office. I am amazed by the service and hospitality they provide homeowners and guests.
