Our granddaughter works & lives in OC. It takes her 45 mins. to get to work on the other side of town Memorial Day thru Labor Day. People are paying the money to rent for vacations.
It is just not NJ! We used to go to KW, Florida, 4 times a year back in the 90's-2000. Now the cost for a week in an Inn or Hotel there is the same we paid for 3-4 weeks back then.
We purchased a Time Share on line 5 years ago in the Outer Banks, NC for $1.00. Owner paid all taxes and transfer fees.
Our yearly maintenance fees are $700. Our week is in October & it is beautiful. We had an offer to go back for a week this March 2024 the week before Easter on the Ocean. The price for the week is $500.
So until we have the money to fly to Italy. Outer Banks will be our vacation destination for 2 wks. a year. $1,200 for 2 weeks works just fine for us.
