With its mild climate, beautiful beaches, world-class golf courses, and sophisticated amenities, Hilton Head Island’s reputation as a premier family-friendly vacation destination continues to grow. Many of our visitors come back year after year, and then the next generation continues the tradition. Guests are also drawn to a particular area on the island again and again, one that hits that “sweet spot” for their family. This makes it easy for them to make lasting memories through a connection with a well-loved retreat.

Hilton Head also generates lots of income for owners of desirable rental properties. What if you learned that you could have it all: the vacation home of your dreams that your children can’t wait to visit while creating a long-term investment that generates a positive return?

Enter the Purpose-Built Home movement: properties that are specifically designed, constructed, or remodeled to maximize vacation rental income. Whether planned from the start to fit that objective or just adapted and improved to take advantage of that potential, the goal of a purpose-built home is to satisfy both the property owner’s requirements, and the vacationer’s wish list.

Here are some important features to consider for a purpose-built home:

• Multiple master suites: especially effective if they each have a great view
• Several areas for eating: large open kitchens as well as incorporating a wet bar or coffee bar on another floor, as well as outdoors
• Plenty of outdoor space: patios, balconies, or decks
• Universal design for those with disabilities: adding an elevator can go a long way to accommodating multi-generational guests

The key here is maximizing the space in a way that is both beautiful and functional. For an existing property, think of upgrading a home to a self-contained “luxury escape”, that offers guests both a bit of privacy as well as various socializing options.

So, if the prospect of your own personal vacation retreat that helps pay for itself with high-performing rental income sounds exciting to you, start by talking to a local professional who understands your goals.
