It’s easy to fall in love with the city. From Europe’s finest cities of Paris, Barcelona and Venice to America’s New York to Australia’s Melbourne. On the down side, something like this is likely to set you back a lot of money upfront, plus you have added building maintenance costs to factor in. However you do have the option to earn a greater amount of revenue from rent. Unlike beach rentals, cities don’t really have an off season meaning you’re likely to make money on it all year round. If you want to be right in the heart of the action and spend your days exploring shops, indulging in fine restaurants and enjoying an active nightlife then a city apartment will be ideal.
For Getting Back To Nature and Enjoying Peace and Quiet: A Secluded Cabin
If your idea of the perfect vacation is in a beautiful woodland hideaway, a cabin in the woods could be perfect for you. Get back to nature and enjoy a peaceful and serene break filled with hiking, fishing and picnicking out in the woods. This is likely to be a less expensive option than some of the others, although you do have cabin maintenance to factor in. This will prevent the wood becoming weathered or attacked by pests. Depending on the size of the cabin and your DIY skills you could do this yourself, get your log home supplies from a site selling these kinds of products. Alternatively you could pay a company to come in each year and ensure that everything is kept up to scratch.
