HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR‌
From my family to yours! As this year comes to an end with celebrations and expectations for the new year ahead, I feel extremely blessed when reflecting on the past. Twenty-six years ago, I began my career as a real estate agent. I never could have imagined the amazing journey that was ahead. I have met incredible individuals along the way, many of whom I feel honored to now call friends. This adventure has seen the growth of my four children, the marriage of three children (and looking forward to the fourth this summer), and the birth of my first grandchild, with a second on the way. Throughout the years there have been several discussions about the key to success. Though there are many different opinions, I truly believe that the real key to my success is all of you; my clients, friends and family. I want to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you. I am deeply touched by the kind words, referrals, loyalty, and constant support that I have been shown over the years and want you to know that I sincerely appreciate everything you have done. I look forward to the opportunity to assist you with any of your real estate needs in the years to come. Best wishes for a happy & healthy holiday season and a wonderful year filled with laughter, love, and happiness. Warm Regards,
Karen Scopetski

Brrr, it’s cold outside! Let’s move south!
F
or those of us who even hear the word “winter” and start shivering, it’s that time of year again. Whether it’s a permanent move or a vacation home, homeowners will start talking half-jokingly or not about moving to warmer climates. If you have a favorite destination where you like to relax, look closely at what you spend in travel costs to see if it would make more financial sense to purchase a second home. A local agent can help you gauge the market not just for values, but also to see if the area you are considering is good for rentals in your absence. Does your home vision include warmer oceans? Many homeowners in various islands, both U.S. territories and not, are also U.S. homeowners. Cash purchases are common; mortgage processes are different especially if the island is not a U.S. territory.Tax professionals well-versed in off-shore ownership should be consulted to learn the differences between property taxes, rental income, capital gains, and inheritance taxes. If you’ve only stayed at resorts, visit again with a different outlook. Resorts are designed to showcase an area’s best attributes. Look closely at the area as you would anywhere else. Who will maintain the property? Check if there are any special requirements for your pet’s health to travel to or stay there, especially if you are looking offshore. We have a network of real estate professionals worldwide. Let us know where you are considering, and we’ll happily connect you with an agent where it’s warm outside!
