Vacation Rentals

As I am preparing for my trip to Costa Rica later this week, my thoughts are turning to vacation rentals and real estate investments abroad. Costa Rica is one of those top destinations in the world for American ex-pats, vacationers, and tourists. This will be my first trip there, and I do intend to hook up with some local real estate dealers.

Geekwire reported that the Seattle-based online vacation rental service Dwellable, is getting bigger with a round of cash recently announced. Howard Schultz's Maveron and Boris Wertz's Version One Ventures led the deal, joined by prominent Seattle angel investors from Zillow, Redfin, Mixpo, and Farecast. The $2 million cash infusion marks the first outside investment since founder Adam Doppelt started Dwellable three years ago.

Dwellable continues to grow its base of users and vacation rental property owners, with more than 300,000 listings from around the world.

The travel industry offers some hot opportunities for investment. To learn more, please message me privately at HomeLandInvestment@gmail.com or leave a message below.

Happy Investing!
