Having a second home is a goal that many families are raised. And summer can be a good time to choose that dream home.

In fact, according to a survey by the European Central Bank (ECB), the Spanish are the Europeans most houses have.

But as with any purchase must face a series of fixed and variable costs. And it is not gold that glitters, real estate investment is characterized by illiquidity and more in times of crisis.

We mortgaged to buy us.

For starters, buying a second home, either on the beach or mountain, is a major outlay or resort to a mortgage loan. In the latter case, the amount that financial institutions tend to finance around 60% of the appraised value. Obviously, a beach house also has cheaper and now prices after the crisis, which in some areas have fallen almost 50% from highs.

This indicates that to buy and maintain a second residence must be from a comfortable economic situation because the acquisition a series of overhead meet. In return, either purchased, at a low point in the housing cycle can provide significant gains in the future or get some return for rent during the time that is not used. In addition to that many people buy thinking about retirement.
