Why You Should Buy a Beach House During the Pandemic

Just imagine it: after another hectic week working from home in the city, you escape to a large, luxurious beach house just blocks away from sun-drenched beaches. With an expansive outdoor living area, you have more than enough space to entertain both family and friends while practicing social distancing.

Now consider this: you CAN buy your dream home BECAUSE of the the COVID-19 pandemic. Here are a few reasons why now is a smart time to buy.

A Serene and Safe Vacation Spot
Do you want to escape the smog, noise, and congestion of the city but are nervous to hop on a plane? Due to the coronavirus pandemic, we don’t blame you. While many airlines are taking the proper precautions to protect their passengers, it’s still tough to maintain proper social distancing on a crowded plane.

With your own beach house in Ocean City, you and your family can enjoy a peaceful getaway that’s also perfectly safe. Whether you enjoy an outdoor barbecue, take a stroll on the boardwalk, soak up the sun and surf on the beach, or just cozy up indoors, Ocean City has everything you could desire in a vacation destination.

Return on Investment
Times are tough. However, buying an Ocean City beach house could provide you with a great return on investment! Some of the perks of purchasing a beach house include:

• Rental Income: When you’re not using your home, you could be renting it out for others to enjoy. Generally, vacation rentals generate much more profitable incomes than traditional rental properties.
• Tax Benefits: As the owner of a vacation rental home, you are allowed to write off business-related expenses, including property tax, mortgage interest, repair costs, and property management fees.
• Property Appreciation: The value of your shore house typically will increase with inflation. This means that your vacation home will be worth much more later on down the road.
