The rising popularity of vacation homes during the pandemic
COVID has brought a lot of changes into our daily lives. Since the first lockdown was introduced last year, we have had to spend most of our time inside of our homes for the safety of ourselves and those around us. Even if we did not want to, we just had to. This has allowed us to spend more time thinking about the aspects we love about our homes, and other things we may not like as much. As such, our experience of home living itself has changed drastically which has reshaped demands from the real estate industry and its trends that continue today.
With work-from-home becoming the new norm, buyers have since been looking for homes that come with a conducive environment for office hours, be it a separate designated room or a few interior features. But that’s not the only significant change in a buyer’s preference for his/her residence.
As the pandemic rages on, people have been feeling the ‘COVID fatigue’, urging to travel out for a vacation. But that simply can’t be done at this time. People are now instead looking for homes that give them the experience of a vacation without actually going to the holiday destination itself! How? Just two words: vacation homes.
Yes, as the name suggests, this is a type of home that offers a home living experience so out-of-this-world that every day spent in it is like being on a destination holiday. This is usually a second purchase that a buyer makes separate from the owner’s main residence, situated in a different location. The sole purpose of a vacation home is to have a getaway whenever the need/desire arises.
In many ways, a vacation home is not so different from a luxury home. They share many similarities in the kind of features and the quality of attributes – from a prime location amidst nature, to world class amenities within the home. If they were both circles in a venn diagram, they would intersect each other almost completely.
If you are on the lookout for a vacation home, the following are the golden triangle of features you should check off your list:
Location: Possibly the most important part of a vacation home. A good location physically transports you away from the hustle and bustle of normal life and into the mindset of enjoying a holiday. Even better if the location is surrounded by natural beauty to engage all senses.
Luxury: A vacation home that is very ordinary will leave you feeling unfulfilled. Luxury makes the holiday experience all the more incredible.
Lifestyle: Many amenities must be present that make your life convenient and hassle free. After all, a vacation is meant to be an escape from the inconveniences of daily regular life.
Checking the above three criteria off your list will give your vacation home a feeling unrivaled by even the most exquisite holiday destinations. And with no end in sight to the COVID situation, now is a great time to look into investing in a vacation home yourself.
