Why Rent Your Mountain Home?

  • Why Rent Your Mountain Home?

Last modified on 2020-05-22

More and more second-home owners are looking into maximizing their home value and turning their vacation homes into short-term rentals for others to enjoy as well.

According to T.J. Mahony, founder of FlipKey, approximately 15 percent of vacation homeowners now rent out their homes, compared with 10 percent a year earlier. By turning your second home into a rental for just a few weeks a year, the revenue off-sets some costs such as homeowner’s insurance, taxes, and utility cost.

A survey conducted by HomeAway.com, owners who rent their second homes make on average more than $33,000 a year in rental revenue. Choosing to rent your mountain home is an excellent choice as the mountains of North Carolina remain one of the most popular vacation destinations in the country. Ashe County has so many activities and natural resources for visitors to enjoy – but if combined with the neighboring towns such as Boone and Blowing Rock the possibilities are unlimited.

If you love the North Carolina Mountains, as most people do, why not consider purchasing a mountain home while it is a still a “buyer’s market” and the inventory of homes for sale are plentiful. Real Estate has always been an excellent long-term investment. Many people, who purchase a second home, are planning to enjoy this home for weekends and vacations, but ultimately their vacation home will become their future retirement home.
