The affluent, as well as middle class, baby boomers and younger groups are exploring the purchase of second homes. Boomers are expected to lead the market in the next 10 years, fulfilling their desire to increase their quality of life by purchasing a secure investment in a vacation property they can enjoy in the off-season and rent out during vacation months. Covering their expenses while their property appreciates may be an immediate goal, and the long-term plan is often to use these second homes as primary residences or winter retreats in the sun belt.

Both boomers and wealthy alike are looking to fuel their enjoyment in life with experiences rather than things. During the latter part of the 20th Century many favored places like Florida, California, Mexico, Hawaii; the result being these vacation spots have lost their charm. No longer are they pristine, wild, wonderful and eco-friendly. Often the crowds, highways, shops and restaurants are little different from their hometowns in North America and Europe. Further, prices have soared to levels where often only the wealthy can afford to invest.
