Family Trusts
Protect Your Assets from Lawsuits & Taxes

Second Home Income
Earn Income from Your Second Home
Homes can provide additional income by converting them to vacation or traditional rentals. Vacation rentals offer the flexibility of weekly terms, so you can reserve the property for family vacations. Traditional leases offer the convenience of long-term leases while providing positive cash flow.
Vacation Rentals
You Can Earn Income While Owning a Vacation Home
Vacation rentals provide the best of both worlds – lucrative financial returns and availability for family vacations. San Diego beach-front and other popular tourist locations are especially enticing because they frequently rent for thousands of dollars per week during the vacation seasons.
