Purpose

This viewpoint paper aims to provide reflections on the role of second homes in the tourism and housing markets together with future lines of research during and after the first outbreak of the COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) pandemic. The authors aim to review the epistemological evolution of the term “second homes” because of the pandemic, as well as to unfold possible short-, medium- and long-term effects that could place second homes at the center of tourist activity and of the tourist rental market profitability.

Design/methodology/approach

This paper is based on published research studies about the definition of the term “second homes”, as well as media sources related to their role during the current situation of the first outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Findings

In the early stages of the pandemic, second-home owners migrated from crowded cities to low-density areas, being vectors of transmission of the virus. Now, a potential shift in tourist preferences could position second homes at the center of tourist activity as soon as travel restrictions are reduced. This could intensify existing processes of commodification of housing, empowering accommodation platforms and situating the potential for profiteering around the tourist rental market. Parallely, international interests in migrating from crowded cities to low-density areas could also be triggered.

Originality/value

This viewpoint is presented as the confinement measures associated with the new pandemic are being de-escalated in most of the western countries. It is expected that sharing it will provide insights to researchers and practitioners to better plan their research around secondary housing. Its role should be analysed from different perspectives: in the spread of the virus to low-density areas to anticipate mitigation actions in future outbreaks; in the recovery process of (domestic) tourism; in the processes of commodification and financialization of housing in tourist areas; and their impacts on local residents.

留在(哪个)家:在 COVID-19 大流行期间和之后的第二个家

目的

本观点论文旨在反思第二套房在旅游和住房市场中的作用,以及在 COVID-19(2019 年冠状病毒病)大流行期间和之后的未来研究方向。作者旨在回顾因大流行而导致“第二居所”一词的认识论演变,并揭示可能将第二居所置于旅游活动和旅游中心的短期、中期和长期影响。旅游租赁市场盈利能力。

设计/方法/方法

本文基于已发表的关于“第二家园”一词定义的研究,以及与其在 COVID-19 大流行的第一次爆发当前情况下的作用相关的媒体来源。

发现

在大流行的早期阶段,二套房业主从拥挤的城市迁移到低密度地区,成为病毒传播的载体。现在,一旦旅行限制减少,旅游偏好的潜在转变可能会使第二套房成为旅游活动的中心。这可能会加强现有的住房商品化进程,增强住宿平台的能力,并在旅游租赁市场中定位暴利的潜力。同时,也可能引发从拥挤的城市迁移到低密度地区的国际利益。

原创性/价值

提出这一观点是因为与新大流行相关的限制措施在大多数西方国家正在降级。预计分享它将为研究人员和从业人员提供见解,以更好地规划他们围绕二级住房的研究。应从不同角度分析其作用:将病毒传播到低密度地区,以预测未来爆发的缓解行动;在(国内)旅游业的复苏过程中;在旅游区住房的商品化和金融化过程中;及其对当地居民的影响。
