When it comes to buying or selling property in a resort or vacation destination, there are unique challenges and opportunities that require a specialized approach. This is where the expertise of a Resort & Second-Home Property Specialist (RSPS) becomes invaluable. As a certified RSPS, I, Steve Springer, am dedicated to helping clients navigate the complexities of the second-home market, whether you’re looking to invest, develop, retire, or purchase your dream vacation home.
What is an RSPS?
The Resort and Second-Home Property Specialist (RSPS) certification is awarded by the National Association of REALTORS® to professionals who have demonstrated a deep understanding of the intricacies involved in buying, selling, and managing properties in resort, recreational, and vacation destinations. This certification ensures that a REALTOR® has the necessary skills and knowledge to assist clients with their unique needs in these specialized markets.
The RSPS certification is particularly beneficial for those interested in second homes, vacation properties, and investment opportunities in destinations that are known for their recreational or resort appeal. These markets often operate differently than traditional residential markets, with distinct considerations that can influence the buying and selling process.
Why Choose an RSPS Certified REALTOR®?
The decision to purchase a second home or invest in a vacation property is significant, and it requires guidance from someone who understands the unique factors at play in these markets. As an RSPS certified REALTOR®, I bring a wealth of knowledge and a specialized skill set that ensures your investment is sound and aligns with your long-term goals.
Here’s what sets me apart as an RSPS-certified professional:
- Expertise in Resort and Vacation Markets: I have been trained to adapt and apply core real estate skills specifically to the resort and second-home markets. This includes understanding the factors that drive these markets, such as seasonal fluctuations, rental potential, and local market trends.
- In-Depth Market Knowledge: The second-home market is influenced by a variety of factors, from economic conditions to lifestyle preferences. I stay informed on the latest trends and developments in these markets, so you can make informed decisions whether you’re buying or selling.
- Tailored Business and Branding Strategies: I’ve developed unique business and branding strategies designed to attract buyers and sellers in the resort and second-home markets. This ensures your property is marketed effectively, reaching the right audience and maximizing your investment.

I’ll guide you through the entire process, from selecting the right location to understanding the financial and legal aspects of your purchase.
- Support for Sellers: Selling a second home or vacation property can be complex, especially when you’re dealing with out-of-town buyers or seasonal markets. I’ll work with you to develop a strategy that highlights your property’s unique features, generates interest, and ensures a smooth transaction.
