Last week I rented a cottage on the south end of Whidbey Island. It was a wonderful, relaxing week, filled with beach walks and exploration of the Island’s lovely small towns.

It got me to thinking about vacation homes and rentals. I love it there, should I buy a place on Whidbey? With what I was paying through AirBnB for my rental, I could potentially have a lovely place for getaways and rent it out and cover my mortgage and costs through rental income. I ran some numbers and it appears it would be a profit maker, but I decided it’s not the right time for me to purchase a vacation/rental property.

But maybe it is for you? Whether it’s Whidbey, the San Juans, the mountains, eastern Washington, or anywhere else in the U.S. or internationally, I can help you determine if a vacation home is right for you, and if so, help you with the purchase.
