Book excerpt: What are your investments doing for you right now? Is your portfolio creating priceless family memories? Is it bringing together your best friends around a blazing campfire in the mountains...or taking them to the main gate of your favorite theme park in every season?Are your investments inspiring the people you hold dear while setting you free? Until now, the answer was probably no.That all changes here.During his time as the Director of Sales for Four Seasons Resort Costa Rica in 2003, international real estate and vacation rental property expert Craig Shawn Williamson met an unassuming American couple in their mid-50s. They invited him to dinner and told their story: In the late 1990s, the husband had been working as a plumber and the wife was a bookkeeper at their church. They had noticed a lack of hotel rooms in their town for tourists, so they began renting out the spare room in their home. Encouraged by that positive experience, they purchased a small two-bedroom house nearby and began renting it for days or single weeks at a time. This home, which would have rented for $350 per month in their small town, began generating an income of over $4,000 per month.Five years later, these two owned 25 homes in seven different major tourism areas around the world. They stayed in them, rented them, and enjoyed their lives--more or less always on vacation. This wonderful couple had come to the paradise of Costa Rica because they were buying a $2 million home with a 180-degree view of the Pacific Ocean at the Four Seasons to use themselves. And, of course, to place in their "rental pool" for income. What a concept: a life of vacations. A life of beaches, a life of golf courses, a life of ski villas and lake cabins. A life of family gatherings and new experiences. A life of adventure, a life of service and of new connections around the globe.From that day in 2003 to today, Williamson has been fortunate enough to participate in and observe this couple's approach to investing and vacationing grow into a massive industry. Today, Williamson is partnering with an array of industry experts and resources to bring two decades of knowledge, tactics, and VRP experiences to you--in one life-changing book.

VRP is more than the marketing and cleaning of a vacation home. There is a massive array of variables in this business. There are many more considerations, and many more disciplines you need to master than you may realize if you are to treat VRP as it should be treated: as a business. YOUR business.

He has consulted and worked with the best in the business, and he has met thousands of couples and families who have transformed their lives. This book is a roadmap for you to get started.
