New Trends for Baby Boomers Home and Land Packages Murphy NC Real Estate

New Trends for Baby Boomers     Home and Land Packages   Murphy NC  

There’s a new trend among the baby boomers when it comes to vacation or retirement homes.  With a more cautious approach towards the future, they are downsizing to preserve their retirement savings.  Their savings have been depleted during the current recession due to the instability of the stock market.

Today’s vacation home will become their savings, an asset that they can cash in should they need more cash flow in later years.  Many of these second homes, purchased with cash can be converted into investment properties and used as retirement income streams.

As you approach retirement, it’s far riskier in today’s market to have two hundred thousand dollars in mutual funds or a 401K than in a home purchased with cash.  Property values are expected to steadily increase over the next twenty years.

Builders here in the mountains are taking note of these trends and building smaller, more efficient homes.  Check out communities like THE MEADOWS and FOXRIDGE on our Exit Website (www.exitmurphy.com) .  With complete home and land packages starting under 100K, the demand for stylish vacation style homes has been brisk.
