When it comes to our real-estate portfolio we all wish our’s was gigantic and comprised of all properties that stretch no less than a few acres, which had all the amenities one could ask and want for and we wouldn’t have to step out of our property again for anything. Only if that was the case, a man can dream, can’t he?
Since not all of us can afford the luxury of having such extravagant homes in our portfolio, we can at least look at the houses of some of the elite that happen to have all of those amenities in their homes and maybe get some ideas for our new homes that we might add to our portfolio in the years to come.
“If a man’s home is his castle, a private island is his kingdom” -Tanya Mohan summed it perfectly while describing what owning an Island would feel like. Even though what it’d feel like to own your own island is a feeling most people would never even come close to feeling in their entire life span there occur to be some really filthy rich folks in the world that enjoy their own private retreats.
