SECOND HOMES
A Place of Your Own by the Water.
A practical guide to buying and owning a seasonal home in Cocoa Beach and along Florida’s Space Coast.
A second home has a different rhythm.
It may be a weekend escape, a seasonal base, or a future retirement home. Each version asks you to think differently about size, location, upkeep, and cost.
Owning a second home means planning for the months you are not there: how the property is maintained, who checks on it, how condo or HOA rules affect short-term use, and what the ongoing ownership costs look like beyond the purchase price.
Emily helps second-home buyers compare condos, beachside cottages, and waterfront homes with a clear eye on how the property will actually be used — and what it will take to care for it year-round.
Seasonal Use
Decide how often you will be there and choose a location and size that fit that rhythm.
Maintenance While Away
Plan for storm preparation, routine upkeep, and someone local to check on the home.
Condo & HOA Details
Review association rules, fees, rental policies, and the responsibilities that come with the property.
