I've managed to secure a full-time unpaid internship at a very high end luxury real estate company in my area and I couldn't be happier with the place I've landed.

I know people who have bought new, beautiful, multi-million dollar, "turn key" luxury homes only to have to deal with major problems in the first few years of ownership.Obviously, old houses often come with their own issues (asbestos, LBP, funky floorplans, and the all time most reprehensible sin against humankind: the carpeted bathroom) …but, if you know how to manage these issues, they’re usually things that can be fixed…plus, there’s the satisfaction of saving a cool old house!

Luxury, super high end real estate is a bit different and those clients can be more demanding, and rightfully so.

This is a residential & luxury vacation rental area of San Diego.  

I wont have to live in it as ill have the luxury of the girlfriends house.

I guess the saying is true; people buy payments, not houses.Looking at it now we have the $10K cap on property taxes for homeowners which is really going to put a dent in those high end luxury homes.

In the case of Phoenix, Scottsdale is home to more residents with money (doctors, lawyers, athletes) and larger plots of land along with luxury hotels, resorts, and tons of entertainment.

I've done luxury vinyl plank, both click lock and glue strip, in my last couple rental renovations..  

But recognize it as what it is: an expensive luxury item that you use for your enjoyment.  

I haven't had the luxury to be in one as of yet.
