Keeping You Informed with Linda Linfoot

L inda L infoot , Mortgage Professional

BECOMING A NOMAD Packing your worldly belongings into a travel trailer or van and hitting the open road can hold a certain appeal to wanderers. With a lot of jobs being remotely accessible, it’s even easier now than ever to pick up and travel while at the same time earning a steady income to fund the lifestyle. Another source of income you could count on is if you rent your home out for long or short-term tenants. Renting a fully furnished home to professionals in town for a short term job, people in-between homes, other nomads or even visitors to the area holds a certain appeal as not only do you not have to sell or store all of your belongings, you can rest assured that you will have a home base should you need to return to the area for one reason or another. Look into the various vacation rental options, consult your local municipality to determine if there are any licenses or permits required, then see if it’s a viable option for you and your needs. Selling your home and using the profit (provided there is some) to fund your adventures is also an option and should be considered if you’re sure about travelling for an extended period of time and not returning to where you were living.
