PropertyShark just released a pretty nifty infographic about second-home ownership in the Hamptons. The chart breaks down where the homebuyers are coming from, how much they pay in taxes, and the total value of their homes. Unsurprisingly, Manhattan takes the top spot in all three categories. What we did find a little shocking, however, is that 60% of all properties in the Hamptons are considered vacation homes?meaning "the owner's permanent address is different from the address of his or her Hamptons home." We knew this place emptied out after Labor Day, but damn, we didn't realize just how big the seasonal exodus was. [PropertyShark]
