Own a Lot — Questions
First-Timer Questions, Answered Straight
Can I rent my lot out when I’m not there?
Most ownership resorts run a rental program and split the nightly rate with owners. Splits, minimum stays and whether you must use the resort’s program vary — it’s in the covenants.
What does “Class A only” mean for resale?
It narrows your buyer pool to Class A owners — and protects the resort’s look and your lot’s value. 28 resorts in this directory are Class A only.
Are dues the whole carrying cost?
No — add property tax, insurance on any casita or outdoor structure, and utilities. See the dues & costs page for the directory’s on-file figures.
Can I build on my lot?
Many resorts allow a casita, outdoor kitchen or storage shed within set rules; some are pad-only. Approvals run through the resort’s architectural committee.
Should I rent before I buy?
Yes — a season in the resort tells you about the community, the weather window and the rental demand better than any listing. Start with the directory, then plan a route past your short list.
