My wife likes to watch the HGTV channel and we see some some affordable beach front properties on the show. It got me to think about buying a property and then renting while not using it, which would be most of the year.
After doing some research and number crunching buying a resale timeshare seems to make a lot more sense. I guess you do have the potential of making money buying something in a beach town where you could rent it out, but there is also a great deal of risk and a lot of upfront cash could be required.
I am in the process of buying a Club Access to add to the Wyndham properties I already own and I can still vacation at a condo on or near the beach for two to three weeks a year with no risk of losing more than what I pay for my MFs. I guess if I wanted to vacation for months at a time buying a vacation property could make more sense. I guess I am just wanting to say I appreciate the value of a resale timeshare a little more now.
