Here is a new website(with one of my rentals) to find a vacation rentals called Home Escape. For years I always used VRBO to find a vacation rental and when I purchased some vacation rentals I also used them.No more, they got greedy and tried to finance their recent buy out by double charging. I don't mind paying the fee but do not think the potential rental should also be charged(double dipping). Not only that but they also raised my fee quite substantially. I got an email from them yesterday about renewing but told them I am no longer interested.Home Escape was born right after VRBO started this excessive charging and they are growing by leaps and bounds because of fed up owners and renters. I had a potential renter contact me to book just yesterday and I got this taken care of. Pleas... 02/15/2017

The latest survey, which includes data from 2010-2013, reports that a homeowner’s net worth is 36 times greater than that of a renter ($194,500 vs. $5,400). In a Forbes article, the National Association of Realtors’ (NAR) Chief Economist Lawrence Yun predicts that in 2016 the net worth gap will widen even further to 45 times greater. The graph below demonstrates the results of the last two Federal Reserve studies and Yun’s prediction: Put Your Housing Cost to Work for You Simply put, homeownership is a form of ‘forced savings.’ Every time you pay your mortgage, you are contributing to your... 07/18/2016
