Rock Star Realtor Andrea McDonald has a sweet setup. She owns a cottage in the Kawarthas that she uses year-round with her family and also rents it out enough to pay for owning it.
In this video, she shares how she balances both enjoying and renting it and covers,
- How she advertises for short-term cottage renters without using Airbnb!
- How she protects herself from partiers who could damage her cottage
- Who buying a cottage vacation property is for
- What you should know about buying a 3-season vs 4-season cottage
- How the cottage market differs from the residential market and when to buy to score great deals
Thanks for sharing how you make the cottage vacation property work Andrea!
