Why Affluent Buyers are Displaying Confidence in Resort Markets

ffluent buyers and sellers today come from a wide range of cultures, financial backgrounds, passions, experiences and expertise. Putting their differences aside for a moment, their similarities are astonishing. They can be described as young, wealthy and full of luxury experience. That experience brings them to buy a similar range of brands from Chanel, Gucci, Burberry and Dior, to Cartier watches and Calvin Klein jeans.
This study is global in nature, which means the markets of purchase will be varied. Some of these buyers are looking at resort markets like St. Bart’s, San Tropez, Cabo San Lucas, The Hamptons, Aspen, San Moritz, Bali, Mauritius and the like. Others are seeking vacation homes near quiet lakes, golf courses and ski resorts, and others still may be looking for a second home for business convenience or seasonal living.
BMW and Audi are the cars of choice and The Ritz Carlton, Four Seasons and independent luxury hotels are some of their favorite places to stay on vacation.
Who is considering buying? Selling?
When it comes to real estate, their similarities remain strong. In this report we will answer the following questions specifically about their behavior in the hot, high-end second home market:
Consumer profile: Buyers, age 40 and younger, are taking over the luxury second home market, but lack the experience of Gen X and Boomers Luxury second home buyers and sellers have similar demographic profiles in terms of age, geography, education and professional status. As a result, their financial profiles are similar, with the only noticeable difference being that sellers have slightly higher asset levels.

Affluent consumers from developing countries (such as Brazil, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, UAE, China and Singapore) are younger consumers. As a rule, the average age for these regions is 35–41 years, and they show greater market interest than those from developed areas (such as North America and Europe), which tend to skew older. All regions, except the Middle East, have an equal or greater proportion of buyers than sellers. More buyers tend to imply a seller’s market, which is not necessarily the case on the whole. The disproportionate amount of buyer demand though, can be seen in many highend markets which are struggling with a lack of inventory at all price points including the high end.

million in assets) represent a unique opportunity. While the mainstream market has concern and behaves with caution, this consumer is becoming more aggressive with investing and feeling extremely confident in the market. Our last paper, Media and the Message: Marketing Real Estate to the Affluent, detailed the media consumption habits of the global high-net-worth household, and some insights can be carried forward for the ultra-high-net- worth consumer, specifically: - This group is more reliant on agents than websites for information (though they do use both). - Online videos, articles, and advertising in real estate/ design magazines and news media elicit an above average response. While the market bears an ever-growing group of potential buyers, sellers are showing signs of concern that cannot be ignored. Luxury second home sellers appear to have concerns over the economy’s continued expansion; two-thirds predict a recession is coming, though most believe it will last less than one year. Despite similar demographics to buyers, sellers have a distinct mindset toward concern for their assets. External factors, such as the strength of the global economy and security of retirement assets create significant concern for sellers, their own behavior may be complicating matters.
Sellers are 65% more likely than buyers to say they spend beyond their means and are 30% more likely than buyers to be worried they may run out of money someday. Their aggressive positioning in the market (currently own 3.8 homes on average) combined with high luxury living may be too much risk to bear ahead of an expected economic slowdown. Divesting from the property may also free up some much needed cash flow.
What are second home buyers looking for? Wellness is the new luxury Affluent consumers have begun living with wellness in mind and this also influences the second home market. In fact, 96% take at least one aspect of wellness seriously as part of their daily routine. Beyond physical and emotional wellness, which most affluent consumers focus on, luxury buyers are keen to improve their intellectual, social and even spiritual wellness.
73% 83%
Three-quarters of buyers take care to eat well, exercise and stimulate their mind. Eight-in-ten prioritize time with family and friends.
Amenities that address these needs are sought by buyers, and especially resort and second home buyers because of a growing demand for communities that take a holistic approach to overall wellness. Wellness first began making an impact in real estate in 2014 with the introduction of the WELL Building Standard in the commercial real estate space as workers sought healthier office environments. The WELL Standard is a performance-based system that measures, certifies and monitors such features as building materials, cleaning products, water and air quality and access to daylight and fitness facilities. The trend is now poised to explode into the residential real estate market worldwide, led in part by demands from the affluent consumer. In a 2018 study by the Global Wellness Institute, “Build Well

to Live Well,” the group reported that “wellness real estate” has grown 6.4% annually since 2015, to reach $134 billion in 2017, and anticipated to expand 6% yearly through 2022 to reach $180 billion. The U.S., along with a few key Asia-Pacific countries (China, Australia, India) and Europe (UK, Germany), account for three-quarters of the market. The trend has been particularly evident through offerings from luxury real estate developers looking to differentiate and appeal to the high-net-worth buyer who prioritizes living well. According to Chris Frampton, managing partner of Denverbased developer East West Partners, wellness is manifesting in real estate “using architecture, landscaping, sustainability and design to encourage social interaction and active lifestyles. Our focus is on building spaces that put people first. Because the affluent have time to devote to their physical health and well-being, wellness for this group is far more than just a trend, it is about living a life well lived.” To appeal to this group, luxury developers are differentiating themselves by curating their offerings to appeal to wellnessminded buyers. These amenities go far beyond typical pools and gyms to focus instead on features that support the mind and body. These can range from on-site restaurants serving
gourmet organic meals, to personal wellness assistants available 24/7 to remind residents to exercise, meditate and eat well, to “brain fitness” programs, offering classes on memory improvement and relaxation. Common amenities are emerging such as rooftop, glassenclosed, soundproof meditation spaces, relaxation rooms, non-eye-irritating saline pools and indoor/outdoor yoga studios. Wellness-optimizing design inside each home ranges from circadian-rhythm lighting system, cleaner air, a result of high-grade filters in heating and cooling units that remove outdoor pollutants and odors, sound-proofing, and natural materials to posture-supportive heat reflexology floors, moodenhancing aromatherapy emanating from remote- controlled walls, vitamin C-infused showers, or mood aligning paint colors, intended to mimic nature. According to the Global Wellness Institute, prospective homeowners are willing to pay 10% to 25% premiums for homes in wellness developments at the middle and upper-end of the market, in part because supply has not yet met demand. There are more than 740 wellness focused real estate projects across 34 countries currently in the pipeline.

Importance of design and incorporating passions The role that design plays in the home is universally seen as impacting health and well-being, as it plays a dual role of influencing personal sanctuary and creating a gathering place. Beyond the quality of materials in the building, luxury second home buyers expect style to come through as many entertain at home. Buyers want a second home, like their primary home, that fits their busy lives and allows them to prioritize the activities they care most about. When it comes to their down time, they want to spend that time entertaining, so they need space for family and friends. They are also looking for quiet spaces for reading and learning, and access to amenities that enable them to live healthy, happy lives. PROSPERITY 2020

PROSPERITY 2020
Key Takeaways 1. The high-end second home market is a net growing market With more buyers than sellers, the demand for second homes is keeping home values high for luxury properties. Buyers are likely to add to their portfolio— not replace. Sellers are more likely to replace than to sell out completely. Sellers’ confidence in the short-term is a bit shaken, as many are expecting a short-lived recession to hit. They may simply be playing the market (which more perceive as strong) and hedging their bets amid uncertain economic times.
2. Younger buyers make up half of the luxury second home market right now Buyers are coming to the table well-schooled. Many have support from professional advisors that can help them craft the best deals and avoid costly missteps. They can also draw on personal experience as most come from affluent backgrounds and are themselves quite well off, particularly considering their age.
3. Ultra-high-net-worth individuals are investing more aggressively Most affluent consumers are staying the course or becoming more conservative with investment risk. On the other hand, one-in-five UHNWI are shifting toward a more aggressive strategy.
4. Buyers are ultimately seeking a life well-lived Beyond their mind and body, these consumers are actively pursuing social wellness at a rate not before measured. This results in a consumer who is focused on active living in a sustainable and technology-influenced way. In terms of the home, they are likely to prefer places that make guests feel at home with them.

Q&A
Q&A “Knowing what a buyer is looking for helps an agent match a buyer’s wants and needs against the complexities of the real estate landscape.” The Randall Family of Companies president says buyers should understand that location and condition always play major roles in whether a property is a good investment.
How has Covid-19 affected the real estate market? Housing markets in Southern New England were off to a very strong start at the beginning of 2020 but slowed dramatically in March and April. The pandemic caused most people to put their housing plans on hold as they attempted to make sense of where the world was headed. However, as we moved into mid-May, and as the economy began to reopen, housing markets took off. The combination of low interest rates and pent-up demand and the attraction of resort markets have led to Southern New England real estate being extremely active.
Is it safe for buyers to look at properties right now? What about sellers? If people feel safe leaving their homes then they should feel safe looking at real estate. Collectively our industry has put a strong emphasis on the safe showing process and our company is certainly doing its part. We have protocol in place that requires our agents to wear masks, sanitize, disinfect and socially distance when they are in a home or working with a client. We also ask our agents to ride in separate cars from their clients and to operate virtually whenever possible. As for sellers, our agents are limiting the number of people in a property at any one time, requiring their clients to wear masks, asking clients to sanitize, asking clients to touch as little as possible in any home and disinfecting doorknobs, handles, etc. after leaving a property. All in all I think our industry has been very diligent in working to ensure the safety of our clients and our agents.
ike Schlott, president of Kinlin Grover, Randall Realtors and Page Taft Christie’s International Real Estate, has more than 30 years of real estate experience, including real estate brokerage, mortgage banking and residential real estate franchising. Currently the vice chairman of the MLS Property Information Network Inc., the eighth-largest multiple listing service in the United States, Schlott shared his thoughts on what the current market means for both buyers and sellers, and the state of the Southern Coastal New England market.

Where do you think the real estate market in Southern New England is headed? I believe activity will remain strong as long as our states continue to keep the pandemic in check. Our markets have always been attractive places to live and this has only been accentuated by the challenges of Covid-19. Buyers from major metro areas like Boston and New York have been looking to Southern New England for those things that we have in abundance – fresh air,
PROSPERITY 2020
space, privacy and natural beauty. This reflects the trends that real estate is seeing around the globe where resort/rural market activity is far outpacing urban market activity.
Can you comment on current housing inventories in Southern New England? As with most markets around the country, the inventory of homes for sale in our markets remains low. This has been the trend for the last few years and it has been accentuated by the strong level of buyer demand. As a result, properties are selling quickly and they are selling close to the asking price – some times over the asking price. This means that it is a very good time to sell and that sellers can probably expect to maximize the value of their home.
What are luxury buyers looking for in a home today? Lifestyle is really the key word, and interestingly the trends of the last ten to fifteen years seem to have reversed. Where buyers were once looking for more of an urban feel – proximity to town, less space, smaller yards – buyers are now looking for privacy and more space in order to work from home or accommodate family. Of course, proximity to the water is always very high on the list along with gourmet kitchens, au-pair/guest suites, media rooms, wine cellars and outdoor kitchens. And where swimming pools were once considered more of a headache they are now in demand as people look for safe/secure ways to enjoy the outdoors.
What questions should buyers be asking you or other real estate professionals? They should outline the lifestyle they are looking for and then ask their real estate professional where they can enjoy that lifestyle at their target price point. Even people who have been coming to Southern New England for a long time don’t know all the different regions. In our markets, towns are so different from one to the next that you really need a professional who understands the nuances of every little village. So, knowing what a buyer is looking for helps an agent match a buyer’s wants and needs against the complexities of the real estate landscape.
PROSPERITY 2020
Is real estate a good investment? Absolutely. Real estate remains the best performing of all long term investments, consistently outpacing the NASDAQ, the S&P 500, gold, bonds, etc. And when you consider the other benefits of real estate investment – the ability to leverage a small down payment, the mortgage interest deduction, and low, long-term interest rates – real estate really shines. The key is that real estate needs to be viewed as a long term investment – something that you can hold for 5 to 7 years. People get in trouble when they try to make a quick profit on their real estate investments. I think that’s a strategy best left to the professional flippers.
Are we going to see a collapse of the housing market like we did in 20062011? No. The real estate economy is in a much better position than it was back then. In 2006-2011 the market was reeling from several years of questionable lending practices, unsustainable price appreciation, rampant speculation and long-term unemployment issues. We have none of those factors in place today. Lending standards are much tighter today, annual price appreciation is much lower, homeowners have significantly more equity and housing affordability (median household income vs. median home price) is very healthy. And once unemployment returns to its pre-pandemic level we will be in a great position for sustained growth in the housing market.
What is unique about your company? For sellers, we do a high level of marketing, both within the New England region and nationally. We also have relationships with sister companies in 70 countries and are able to expose a seller’s property to the global market. This ability to market broadly, along with our staff of highly trained agents and our 98 percent client satisfaction rating, means that we are going to be able to help sellers maximize the value of their home. And for buyers, we are the largest company in the region with very knowledgeable and experienced agents. Our agents know the marketplace. They know the market differences not only town by town, but also street by street. This is especially important relative to proximity to our waterways.

Cape Cod’s arts, culture and scenic jewel Out and about
BY JAYNE GUERTIN
At a glance The furthermost part of Cape Cod, where its tip curls under and folds into itself as if it’s holding a handful of gems (and it is), happens to be the liveliest town on the Cape. This is an inclusive town, where everyone is welcome regardless of how one rolls. P-town, as it’s called, is also the arts mecca of the Cape. Named by Coastal Living Magazine as one of the top 10 artist colonies in the country (it’s also the country’s oldest continuous art colony), P-town is a leader in all things art and culture. 20
The empty spit of sand on which the Pilgrims landed is, in the summer months, a place that teems with commerce and excitement. Yet quiet places of relaxation can be found tucked away in every corner, especially along the coastline, at beaches like Herring Cove and Long Point. The town’s picturesque biking paths run through dunes, up gentle hills and along the coastline – it is awe-inspiring scenery. With 21.3 miles of shoreline and several marinas, yacht and country clubs, P-town is a sailor’s delight, as well. On land, the main artery runs down Commercial Street, where a PROSPERITY 2020

Several annual festivals are held throughout the warmer months, such as the International Film Festival and the Provincetown Portuguese Festival – a mix of food, music and dance that celebrates the town’s heritage and ends with the popular Blessing of the Fleet. While the year-round population is about 3,000, the numbers swell in the summer months to upward of 60,000, distributed over 9.7 square miles of land.

CHATHAM
A postcard-perfect village Out and about
BY JAYNE GUERTIN
At a glance Tucked in Cape Cod’s elbow is the quintessential fishing village of Chatham where, early morning, boats head out to deep waters for the day’s catch. This perfectly picturesque town, situated at the southern-most tip of Cape Cod’s National Seashore, is known for its many beautiful beaches and historic lighthouses, such as the 19th-century Chatham Lighthouse, which now serves as an active U.S. Coast Guard station. Abutting the station is the untarnished, 40-acre Monomoy National Wildlife Refuge – part of the 7,500 acres comprising the Monomoy Islands – where one can stroll along the shoreline, spy migratory birds and watch seals at play. 22
Boaters will find several yacht and boat clubs throughout town, such as Chatham Yacht Club and the Monomoy Yacht Club. Chatham also has a municipal airport for small aircraft. Chatham is endowed with some of the best golf courses in Massachusetts, and Eastward Ho! Country Club, with its stunning, multidirectional water views, has been ranked the best in the state. The plush Wequassett Resort and Golf Club on the Harwich/Chatham border has, among other amenities, pools and four Har-Tru tennis courts. The exquisitely appointed Chatham Bars Inn, an oceanfront resort with sweeping views of the Atlantic, is nearby the 9-hole golf course at Chatham Seaside Links. PROSPERITY 2020

At a glance Historic Falmouth offers 68 miles of coastline, the largest on the Cape, which makes it the consummate place for sailors and beach lovers. The town has three public marinas, two yacht clubs, one boatyard and a sailing school, along with various private marine facilities. Its southwest orientation makes for stunning sunsets and glorious late-afternoon sailing. With eight quaint villages, and scarcely an off-season, Falmouth also has a robust downtown that supports a plethora of dining options, and an array of stores and businesses, as well as museums and a collection of community theaters. And nearby Bourne Bridge is a bonus for those traveling off Cape.

With approximately 33,000 year-round residents, Falmouth is known for being a family-oriented town. There is no shortage of sports and recreation, and the school system includes several public and private institutions from pre-kindergarten through high school. Ten public beaches (and assorted private ones), along with numerous inlets and freshwater ponds and lakes, beckon residents and visitors alike to explore the waterways by foot or boat. For a more grounded activity, the 10.7 mile, gentle Shining Beach Bikeway winds south from North Falmouth to Woods Hole, passing through woodlands, marsh, cranberry bogs and along Falmouth’s sparkly coastline.

At a glance There is a lot to be said for small-town life, especially in the charming South Coast town of Marion. Because of the town’s modest size – less than 5,000 year-round residents – people tend to get to know one another, which translates into a tight-knit, friendly community. Its location, 50 miles south of Boston and 40 miles southeast of Providence, Rhode Island, makes it an ideal place for four-season living. And its school system, comprised of private and public options from pre-K through high school, includes the prestigious Tabor Academy, a boarding and day school that draws students in grades 9-12 from all over the world.

Since almost half of the town’s square miles are made of water embodying pretty marshes, coves and inlets, it’s not uncommon to see neighbors and visitors walking the shoreline, or kayaking and sailing Marion’s gorgeous, meandering coastline. Boaters appreciate Marion’s deep-water Sippican Harbor, which is dotted with stately homes. The town has several boatyards, marinas and yacht clubs for sailors, and history buffs will find many sites of interest, including the Historic Windmill and the Bird Island Light.

While this pretty South Shore town is only 35 miles from Boston, it’s a world away from the rush and roar of all things city. But Duxbury is by no means sleepy. On the contrary, its village vibe, natural beauty and many festivities keep locals engaged year-round, indoors or out. The town’s 13.9 square miles of water (inlets, ponds, bogs and beach) is set against Cape Cod Bay’s “Cranberry Coast,” so it’s no surprise Duxbury has made a name for itself in the cranberry, oyster and shellfish industries – all of which help support the local economy. That means that you can expect to find the very best seafood in Duxbury.
Duxbury’s landscape lends itself to unending exploration. Popular Duxbury Beach’s six miles of shoreline runs south from Marshfield across Duxbury Bay on the west and Cape Cod Bay on the east. This gentle curve of coastline can be reached with a quick drive or walk across the spectacularly scenic Powder Point Bridge.

And Jonathan Edwards Napa-style winery is worth the 30-minute drive to North Stonington. North Stonington is also home to the

This pristine village is a sailors delight, and the Watch Hill Yacht Club, a private organization, is where one would want to moor their vessel. The club offers guest moorings that are available on a first-come-firstserve basis only for Reciprocal Clubs and Cruises. For the golfers, the 125 year-old formidable and fancy private Misquamicut Golf Club is in Watch Hill’s backyard; and, Lake of Isles in North Stonington, CT, offers 18-hole public and 18-hole private courses. In 2019, Golfweek voted the club #4 of the top 10 courses to play in Connecticut. Only a short drive away is the private Weekapaug Golf Club, as well as the private Shelter Harbor Golf Club. Because the village of Watch Hill is so tiny, there are no schools within its borders. The town of Westerly features both public and private schools.

Introduction The world of affluence and wealth continues its healthy growth worldwide. Estimates from the Credit Suisse global wealth report indicate there are more than 45 million individuals with a net worth exceeding $1 million USD and the total value of their personal wealth is north of $360 trillion USD. Both are record highs and exceed benchmark growth rates in population and wealth creation. In short, there has never been a larger market of potential luxury home buyers available. Despite the financial health of the affluent, there are challenges for the luxury property market to overcome. Buyers face the possibility of economic or political instability, evolving tax structures and climate-related purchase considerations. Beyond these evergreen challenges, novel issues like the Coronavirus (COVID-19) have impacted market activity in China and across all luxury sectors including technology, travel, manufacturing, luxury retail and more. What is the response to these outsized trends? In a word— wellness. Of luxury homeowners, 48% are tuning out the noise of the world, while 72% say wellness is important because it contributes to their overall happiness. Each year Luxury Portfolio International® and YouGov Affluent Perspective delve into the trends, habits and opinions of luxury homeowners around the world to understand what motivates them today. This report covers five trends shaping how homeowners view wellness in their life. Wellness is a growing trend among affluent consumers overall, and specifically among the next generation of buyers, and is estimated to be a $4.2 trillion USD industry worldwide, growing at twice the rate of the global economy.1
As wellness shapes decisions made on a daily basis, real estate professionals can expect that these same sensibilities will be incorporated into one of the most important purchases someone makes—their home. These trends are impacting buyers and sellers all over the world:
1. Wellness is central to a life welllived 2. Home wellness is in growing demand 3. Wellness through intentional travel is gaining momentum 4. Total wellness includes mind, body and soul 5. Wellness is key to managing the stress of success
The Consumer Profile This report is among global luxury homeowners with a primary residence valued at $1 million USD or more. A total of 1,565 respondents in the YouGov Affluent Perspective 2019 Global study met this criterion with 861 in the $1 million to $2 million range, 536 in the $2 million to $5 million range and 168 in the $5 million or more range.

Urban mixed-use areas are particularly benefiting from the Wellness Real Estate boom, especially those catering to younger consumers who are even more interested in focusing on their wellness. This fits perfectly with Millennials, who are keen to have an urban life free from hassles (for example, 47% agree they can see themselves not owning a car one day). Changing work styles from in-office to remote also promotes less need for permanently owned mobility and an increased need for self-care at home.
Since it is early in the trend for Wellness Real Estate, new ways of meeting this desire are emerging all the time. Wellness at home can be found, for example, with specific kitchen elements* for the management of dietary preferences (e.g., temperature and humidity controlled cabinets, cellar-like storage for root vegetables, apples and other fall harvest produce), meditation spaces, exercise rooms, home spas or saunas, special lighting features for sleep hygiene, air and water filtration and more.
At the same time, older Baby Boomers also benefit from the Wellness Real Estate trend as their needs change and downsizing become a priority.

Key Takeaways 1. A life well-lived is the ultimate goal for today’s luxury homeowner. Consider it the foundational value they have, upon which care for health, family, learning, doing and working are built upon.
2. Wellness amenities in the home are increasingly desirable. This fairly recent development has made for a new level of excitement and complexity in the home purchase. Learning about what is available — and what is worth it to have — are questions buyers are likely to ask.
3. Precious free time is being committed to wellness activities. Whether it is a leisure trip or the hour before bed, people are taking time for self-care, social bonding and feeling at one with themselves. As people learn more about what helps them get to a place of relaxation, they will want to find ways to incorporate it into their daily life.
4. Wellness is about transformational experiences. The point of a life well-lived is not to have many luxurious items and all the hottest brands (for most people, anyway). It is the extension of life-long learning pointed inward. As people live longer, they want their mind, body and soul to operate at peak levels for the long haul.
5. Success breeds stress. With increased personal and professional success comes complexities to the management of life. This is especially true for wealthy home buyers and sellers which can hit a high point around the sale or a purchase of a new home. Incorporating elements of wellness for the mind, body and soul, into every aspect of real estate — even the transaction itself — will assist with reducing stress for all parties throughout the process.

For many, the love of Cape Cod inspires entrepreneurial success.
Republished from Prosperity 2016
esse and Jane Craig were tired of sitting in Boston traffic and not having a backyard at their Cambridge residence. With two young children and parents who were retiring to Cape Cod, they made one of the biggest decisions of their lives. They would move here. Two years later, the Craigs live in a four-bedroom, Cape-style house that overlooks Cape Cod Bay and is across the street from protected conservation land. On nearly an acre of land, they enjoy a new pool and a yard big enough to accommodate a giant play area for their kids and dog. Jane, a physician, works part-time for Cape Cod Healthcare, in Harwich, and Jesse works full-time, right from his home office, for GlobalFoundries, a leader in the field of advanced semiconductor design and manufacturing. “We design and build microchips used in everything from cellphones to satellite components,” explains Jesse. Jesse represents one of the fastest-growing demographics on Cape Cod—the home-based business. From Falmouth to Provincetown, there are more than 6,000 home-based businesses, and that number is growing rapidly. About one in four of these represent highly skilled professionals like Jesse—whose careers range from computer programming and graphic design to law and accounting, finance and marketing. Some earn more than $1 million annually in revenue.
Supported by high-speed Internet service and mobile technology, as well as ready access to airports in Providence and Boston, these homebased businesses reflect a seismic shift in the U.S. economy. There are more than 16 million people working from home nationwide, and that number is expected to increase nearly 70 percent by 2018. One study suggests that about 35 percent of these home-based businesses see annual revenues exceeding $125,000. On Cape Cod, home-based businesses also represent those started by many older professionals who don’t necessarily retire to the Cape, but repurpose themselves. They are trading in their 9-to-5 jobs and commutes for mobile consultancies. Or, in many cases, they begin entirely new careers motivated as much by passion as by paycheck. A study by the Cape Cod Commission found that 40 percent of today’s secondhome owners who plan to move here full time expect to work— mostly from home. One publisher who retired early to the Cape found himself owning and operating four magazines and a website within three years of his arrival—relying only on a laptop computer, tablet and smart phone, all from his office at home overlooking a marsh and watching the tide flow in and out twice a day. “I sell advertising, work with designers, writers 12 Cove Lane Pocasset, MA Last offered at $999,900

D and programmers and collaborate with printers from any room in my home,” he marvels. “I can also work when I am traveling, without missing a beat.”
Jesse’s office is equipped with four large monitors, a workbench and a soldering iron, a logic analyzer, a programmable power supply, an oscilloscope and a slew of peripherals. While he works a 9-to-5 schedule, he often will be at his desk past midnight to accommodate the vastly different time zones of his team members. “This typically happens when conferencing—often with sharing software— with people from Taiwan, Japan, China and Korea,” he says. Like many others on Cape Cod, Jesse can work not only on the Internet, but also within a Virtual Private Network (VPN) that allows him to connect securely with computer systems that run inside his corporate firewall. VPN is opening telecommuting opportunities to fields as diverse as finance and banking. “When I moved to the Cape I was told to expect blackouts, but fortunately this has not been the case,” says Jesse. “I have yet to lose a workday to a service interruption. The Internet speed offered by the cable company far exceeds what I need and is very competitive with the rest of the country.” The Cape is served by Comcast, which provides businessclass service, and Verizon FIOS in many towns, but not all of them. For Jesse, working from home has given back the hours previously lost to commuting, which has in turn made him more productive at work and also a better father. “Now, I can help out with the kids. I can take my daughter to and from the bus stop in the morning, go to school events during the day,” PROSPERITY 2020

Then, there are the many weekend warriors—secondhome owners, mostly with primary residences in the Boston metro area, who will leave their offices Thursday night, commute to the Cape and work at home Friday and sometimes during the weekend before heading back to the Boston area Monday morning. Builders on the Cape encounter them frequently. Today, most newly built homes include a home office as well as state-of-theart smart technology. In Jesse’s case, he can be more productive working from home than commuting hours to work. Moreover, his team of collaborators isn’t able to congregate every day at one office. Their talents and skills are so diverse and specialized that it takes an entire world to accommodate them.

he says. “In the summer, we can take lunch and take a quick trip to the beach, which is only a few minutes away. And when I have to work at night, I can do so without missing dinner.” The Craigs’ Cape Cod lifestyle works for their family. “We love the Cape,” Jesse says. “We feel like we are truly part of a community. We love how easy it is to enjoy nature. We love walking in the Cape Cod National Seashore, swimming in the bay within eyesight of the house. And with both sets of grandparents retired here, the kids get to see them—and we have great babysitters.” 63
RENTING

To learn first-hand how their lifestyle fits into a particular home or area, a number of savvy purchasers choose to rent first.
Trying before you buy just makes sense. You are able to get to know the location – how far it is to the water and what the neighborhood is like. It’s a smart way to go about purchasing a home. — CINDY ROTH, LICENSED REAL ESTATE AGENT, SPECIALIZING IN RENTALS IN THE BREWSTER AREA

uying a Cape Cod vacation home is a commitment. Often, buyers rely on the presence – or absence – of that special spark when they step into a potential home. However, during these first few visits, it can be nearly impossible to pick up on some details that make a vacation home just right, such as the length of afternoon light in the back yard, the best route to the beach at high tide, or the quietness of a neighborhood at night. There is another option that some savvy buyers have found beneficial – renting before purchasing. Renting a home, especially in a particular neighborhood of interest, is a smart way to gather critical information. From getting to know the secrets of local beaches to tapping into the ebb and flow of a community, renting allows clients to see how their lifestyle fits into a particular home or area before buying.
to the Cape because of the promise of sandy beaches and small-town charm, but deciding which town to settle in can be tough. Do you prefer the summertime bustle of Falmouth or the solitude available in Truro? A little first-hand experience can go a long way. Kinlin Grover clients Steve Katz and his wife, Victoria, live west of Boston, and had been renting on the Cape for close to 15 summers. For six of those years, they rented one house in Sears Point in Brewster that they fell in love with. “We found ourselves renting for two weeks, then for three weeks, and then for four weeks because we realized this was such a special place,” says Steve Katz. “In the back of my mind, I was always thinking, if this ever comes up for sale, it would be my dream home.”
Lucky for Katz, the house came on the market two years ago and he and his wife purchased it. The Katzes, who hope to retire in the next On the Cape, the rental market is competitive, VICTORIA KATZ. few years, were initially drawn to the property’s but also abundant.

It’s a smart way to go about purchasing a home.” Clients who are soon-to-be empty-nesters and are beginning to dream up where they’d like to spend their retirement can benefit from this test-drive approach.

can sit and look out at the water and it is just so calming.” As renters, Katz and his wife were able to experience different neighborhoods and tried some other locations, including a property off-Cape near Horseneck Beach in Westport. However, they realized that, in addition to their affinity for the coastline, they loved the variety of activities available on the Cape. 65

“We liked that there was more to do. We also like the cultural aspects, like the natural history museums and so on,” says Katz.
but the extra income is helpful for maintenance costs, especially if you’re planning on only being in the home in the summer,” says Roth.
Amanda Kundel is an agent with Kinlin Grover Real Estate in Barnstable Village. She was born and raised on the Cape and has just under two decades of experience with rentals and sales. She says most of her second-home clients have been renters before they decided to buy.
Katz rents out his Cape home for four to six weeks a year in the summer. Of course, the couple hopes to move to the unit more permanently in the future, but for now, they work with Roth to identify the right renters and then Roth’s team takes care of the rest.
“It’s the perfect way to get a feel for the area, location, and people and to see which beaches you prefer, and which restaurant spots you want to frequent,” she says. “When you’re renting, you can pop over to look at an open house or just drive through neighborhoods that interest you. I’d say a lot of people end up renting first.”
“Whether a screen door breaks or the internet is down, Cindy takes care of all that,” he says. “I certainly don’t want to get those calls, so it’s nice to know there is always someone who is right there.”
Kundel recently had a client who had rented in a few different spots around the Cape before renting a home through her in Osterville. “They loved that they could walk to Main Street and to the beach, they also really enjoyed that the library was nearby and there is a great sense of community in the neighborhood,” she says. “They loved the area so much they purchased a home there.” Now, she says, “They went from renters to homeowners and now I’m renting their house out when they aren’t utilizing it. It works out great for them.” However, a vacation home is not typically a money maker, according to Roth. “I always tell clients, you’re not going to get rich from renting,

Today, as Cape Cod homeowners, Steve and Victoria Katz have learned even more about the area, specifically the appeal of the off-season. “One of the things that was really amazing about the property was that we looked at it as a summer getaway with the beach and a certain weather pattern, but what we’ve come to find out is that there are so many other seasons to enjoy,” says Katz. “We really enjoy the fall weather with its forceful winds and the way the sunset turns more to the west over the course of the year. Even in the heavy-duty winter, we go down a few times and we love to see all the beaches locked in by ice and we walk the beach in parkas. It’s beautiful.”
