5 Inspirational Holiday Travel Ideas For Real Estate Pros

Written by Paul Esajian

Are you looking for some new and refreshing holiday travel ideas? More specifically, are you wondering which destinations may actually be conducive to your bottom line?  Check out these great options for relaxing, finding inspiration, and even scouting for new real estate deals.

The end of the year holiday season is fast approaching. It is important for real estate investors to take some time out and get away. Take this opportunity to relax, recharge and spark some new innovation. These travel ideas are great for real estate agents and investors alike. They allow them to combine quality time with companions, exploration, and a little business on the side. This way you can enjoy a little vacation while simultaneously giving yourself an edge in 2014.

The following is a list of destinations that will help you unwind and could possibly contribute to your real estate success:

1. Tignes

Tignes, in the French Alps, is an inspirational ski resort. It is one of the only snow guaranteed resorts and offers something for every level of skier. Snap on the skis, break out the snowboard and feel the downhill rush. Or, lock yourself away in a chalet with breathtaking views and a fireplace for romantic evenings. The isolation will facilitate a new approach to thinking and the clean air may inspire some new ideas. If nothing else, a trip here will clear your head for what is coming in 2014.

2. Amsterdam

Amsterdam might have been one of Steve Job’s favorite cities on earth. It’s a place where eclectic innovation abounds, with plenty of diverse sights, smells and activities to inspire. From the magic of the tulip fields, to ultra-modern pay-as-you-go public restrooms, the cafes, canal boat rides, historic buildings and delicious dinners it can be as non-stop or as laid back of a vacation as you would like. Though, no matter what your itinerary is, you are sure to find something to spark a creative idea for your real estate business. One popular web hosting firm just opened a European data center here in order to deliver better service for those seeking to reach prospects in Africa, the Middle East and Eastern Europe.

3. San Diego

For those real estate agents and investors that already live in San Diego, it can be hard to drag themselves away from the diverse paradise that they already enjoy. For those that haven’t been yet, this is the perfect time to make the trip and check out what the local real estate market has to offer. Plus, of course, there are endless activities, idyllic beaches and the mountains to explore. Be sure to pack heavy,  you may never want to leave.

4. New York

While it may not be a natural paradise, New York is one of the must visit spots on the planet at Christmas time. The shopping is unbeatable and the lights are dazzling. Ice skating and snow serve as a refreshing change for those spending the rest of the year in a sun drenched oasis like South Florida or Southern California. Plus, for those in the real estate game, New York provides a chance to see what is going on with the new tax free Start-up NY zones, take a look at how investors are making so much on flipping houses in Brooklyn, or even scoop up a massive discount on a home in the Hamptons.

5. India

Looking for something more exotic? How about India? It has one of the fastest growing economies of the moment, there is plenty going on in the real estate market, and you might just find a great partner for outsourcing much of your real estate business. Plus, there are obviously endless opportunities for taking in nature or taking time out for meditation. India is also the recent focus for those intent on giving back.
