9.07.2007 - Should you buy a Vacation Home, or Rent it?

The first thing to consider is the reason you wish to invest in a second home (--> france real estate)at all. If all you're after is a fun and enjoyable vacation by the sea or in the countryside, or a chance to work off the stress at work on the ski slopes, wouldn't just renting do? There are plenty of properties for rent which are very affordably priced. Do you really want your own property?
