Tell us a bit about what you’re looking for. Is there a specific town that you’ve had your eye on? Are you looking for a vacation home that is near the mountains, beach, desert, coast? Do you want a pool? How many bedrooms? The world is your oyster!
Once we know more about what you’re looking for, our acquisitions team will be on the search for homes that fit your criteria and the Summer model. We'll match you with a partner agent - or bring your own - to start viewing the homes you love right away.
We buy the home, covering all upfront costs and taking care of all of the paperwork (yes, really!). You make an initial payment of as little as 15% and pay a monthly membership payment, all of which is credited in full towards your purchase.
At any point over two years if you fall in love, you can make it official (you're already well on your way to owning). If not, get your initial payment back after two years and go on your way.
We take care of design, furniture delivery, and the setup of all essentials and finishing touches. Our professional interior design team will work with you to make it feel like home. Summer also manages any updates or projects that the home requires. Our network of professionals ensures the work is done effectively and efficiently - all at no upfront cost to you.
Once your home is complete, we list your property for short-term rental across all the major outlets and our Summer network. Our dedicated team of property managers handles everything - from hosting services and guest inquiries, to revenue management and home performance reviews. You get to sit back and watch its performance, while gaining ownership over time.
You have the option to have pre-loaded credits that can be used to stay in your home, or any home in the Summer network - from the beach, to the mountains and everywhere in between. Start using all of your credits on day one and pay for them over time.
Flexibility is the name of the game. There are no restrictions for when, and where, to use your credits. Want to stay at your home for Memorial Day, and go somewhere warm for the holidays? We’ve got you covered!
Pay as little as 15% down and earn more with your monthly payment than a traditional mortgage.
We take care of everything – from design, construction, to property management. We also cover taxes, fees, and paperwork.
You have the ability to see how your home performs before buying it outright.
If at the end of 2 years you decide not to buy, you get your initial payment back and walk away. No strings attached.
With Gradual Ownership, both your initial payment and monthly subscription payments are ultimately applied to the home purchase if you decide to buy, and are interest-free. Unlike a mortgage, where most of your monthly payment goes towards interest, not principle.
That means you’re able to own much more of a home over a two year period with Summer than you would with a traditional mortgage–and you’re not wasting a cent.
