🏡 Could a Second Home Help Fund Your Retirement?
If today’s economy has you wondering whether retirement is still within reach, you’re not alone. According to Intuit, 68% of people aren’t confident they’ll ever retire — and many are exploring new ways to build long-term financial security.
That’s where real estate comes in.
Buying a second home could help you grow your wealth, generate rental income, and even give your retirement funds a boost when you’re ready to sell. It also diversifies your financial assets beyond just savings or stocks — which can add more stability over time.
And no, this strategy isn’t just for big investors. In fact, 85% of people who own multiple properties have just 1 to 5 homes — often everyday people using real estate to prepare for the future.
With more homes on the market and increased buyer leverage, now could be a great time to explore this option. Whether you want to rent it, hold it, or retire into it — a second home might be your smartest financial move yet.
💬 Ready to talk about what’s possible? Let’s explore whether a second home could help you reach your retirement goals faster.
