Second Home or Wise Investment

Fluctuations in the stock market since the September 11 disaster has led to an increase in real estate investments. Second home buyers are on the increase, and it is expected to rise to nearly 10 million homeowners by the end of the decade.

Tax law changes, low interest rates, smaller household size and higher income also contribute to the appeal of investing in a second home, and with 77 million baby boomers reaching retirement age in the next three decades, now is the time to buy.

Most second homes are purchased in resort areas. One of the most popular resort towns in the Pacific Northwest is picturesque Ashland, Oregon. Home of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival and surrounded by mountains, lakes and rivers, Ashland has just the thing for any lifestyle. The Britt Festival in nearby Jacksonville draws world acclaimed performances from dozens of popular performers each year.

Mountain Meadows www.mtmeadows.com is an Ashland retirement community offering condominiums and single family houses in the $200,000 to $400,000 average price range. Less than a decade old, the 21 acre community boasts a park, community garden, recreation center, and a list of services and amenities to choose from. Only one spouse needs be 55 years of age or older to qualify for purchase.

It’s perfect for a vacation home, and when the time comes, retirement. Assisted living services are available to whatever degree is desired, transportation services are provided, and the hospital is only 10 minutes away.

Come visit for a raft trip, fishing trip, Shakespeare play, or see a big name like Dave Brubeck at Britt, and while you’re there take a tour of the luxurious accommodations at Mountain Meadows.
