The $4M Second Home You Use 2 Weeks a Year is a Terrible Investment | Here's the Fix

What if your second home investment actually matched how you use it? Most families who own a traditional vacation home spent 100% of the purchase price, carry 100% of the costs, and use it, if they're being honest, about 2 to 3 weeks a year. That's not ownership. That's an expensive storage unit with a view. GoForth CEO Adam Capes introduces a smarter framework: Right-Sized Ownership. Own 1/4 of the home. Pay 1/4 of the price. Access 1/4 of the time. Your investment finally matches your usage, and the life you actually want to live. Because someday isn't a plan. And the experiences you keep putting off aren't going to wait forever. 🎯 Hear Adam explain... → Why traditional second home ownership is fundamentally misaligned with how families actually use vacation homes → The Right-Sizing principle: 1/4 ownership · 1/4 price · 1/4 access → How GoForth equates your investment directly to your usage and enjoyment → Why "someday" is the most expensive word in real estate → How smart families around the world are choosing to live fully and invest wisely — right now 💡 THE PROBLEM WITH TRADITIONAL SECOND HOME OWNERSHIP: Think about how this actually plays out for most families: You buy 100% of a $2M beach home. You visit in July. Maybe spring break. A long weekend in the fall if schedules align. That's roughly 2–3 weeks out of 52. Meanwhile, 100% of the mortgage, property taxes, insurance, maintenance, and management costs keep running, every single month, whether you're there or not. You're not an owner enjoying a dream. You're a part-time guest in a very expensive, very empty house. The math is brutal: 100% of the cost for ~5% of the year $80,000+ in annual carrying costs $160,000+ in opportunity cost on capital that could be invested elsewhere And the guilt of knowing it's sitting empty while you're busy living your real life The worst part? Most families knew this before they bought. They just didn't have a better option. Until now. ✅ THE GOFORTH RIGHT-SIZE FRAMEWORK: GoForth was built on one powerful idea: your ownership should match your life. Own 1/4 → Pay 1/4 → Access 1/4 Here's what that actually means: 🏡 1/4 of the Home You hold a genuine one-fourth ownership interest in a luxury vacation property, structured through an LLC. Real title. Real equity. Real appreciation potential. This is not a points system, a timeshare, or a club membership. You own it. 💰 1/4 of the Price Instead of $2–4M for a property you'll use a fraction of the year, you invest at your actual usage level. Keep the remaining capital working — in markets, in your business, in other investments. Your wealth picture improves the moment you stop over-investing in underused assets. 📅 1/4 of the Time — Up to 12 Weeks Per Year 84 nights annually. In your home and across GoForth's entire managed portfolio of global luxury properties. That's not a limitation — for most families, it's more quality time than they've ever had in any vacation home they've owned. And every night is actually used, actually enjoyed, actually lived. 🌍 YOUR INVESTMENT = YOUR ENJOYMENT This is the core of Right-Sized Ownership. For decades, the vacation home industry operated on a broken assumption: that owning more is always better. That 100% ownership signals success, even when 95% of that ownership sits idle. GoForth flips that equation. We align what you spend with what you actually experience. Every dollar you invest has a corresponding night you'll enjoy, a memory you'll make, a tradition your family will return to. No waste. No guilt. No empty house carrying costs for 48 weeks a year. Just your life, fully lived — in the places that matter most to you. ⏳ DON'T WAIT FOR SOMEDAY: Here's the truth most people don't say out loud: The beach vacation you've been planning for five years isn't going to happen "when things slow down." Your kids aren't going to be this age forever. The mountain skiing trips, the mornings on the Mediterranean, the Caribbean Christmases — those windows don't stay open indefinitely. Every year you wait for someday is a year you didn't live the life you worked this hard to build. GoForth exists to close the gap between the life you imagined and the life you're actually living — without making you choose between experiences and financial intelligence. Live fully. Invest wisely.
