Buyer paths · Second home
A second home or getaway.
A weekend place, a future retirement home, or a place for family.
Before you shop
- Ask your lender how a second-home loan differs from a primary-residence loan.
- If you might rent the home out, check local rules, HOA restrictions, and insurance before you make an offer; rules vary by town and community.
- On the coast, ask about flood zones, wind and flood insurance, and elevation early.
