Finding your home center, top destinations for real estate in 2017

There's no place like home," said Dorothy Gale in The Wizard of Oz, and she's right. But a home is not only a place of rest and refuge from the outside world. It's where gatherings of family and friends happen, and where our most cherished memories are made.

Sometimes though, we need a little help finding our home center. Our Leverage Partners are to here to do just that with some of the top destinations for real estate in 2017 that span the globe.

1.) Breckenridge, CO. USA

Located at the base of the Rocky Mountains, Breckenridge is the place for families to come together whether it's for an annual ski trip on its world-famous slopes or a permanent residence among the mountain peaks.

2.) Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

If the world-class fishing and exciting nightlife weren't reason enough to explore this vivacious town off Mexico's Pacific coast, the natural beauty is. Start to see Puerto Vallarta less as a place to vacation and more as a place to call home.

3.) Honolulu, HI. USA

Honolulu is home to one of the most well known neighborhoods in the world–Waikiki. Shop, dine, and explore all that the Hawaiian capital has to offer before watching the sunset over the majestic waves of the Pacific.

4.) Naples, FL. USA

Looking for a new place to tee off? Naples is your destination with over 80 championship courses in the area. But don’t forget to take a break from the course to enjoy the coastal city's white sandy beaches.

5.) Santa Barbara, CA. USA

With the Pacific Ocean on one side and the Santa Ynez Mountains on the other, Santa Barbara is known as "The American Riviera." Come for the views and stay for the wine.

6.) Milan, Italy

A fashion capital of the world, Milan is home to unparalleled works of art and architecture such as Leonardo Da Vinci's The Last Supper and the Duomo di Milano. If that wasn't enough to entice you to this bustling metropolis of Northern Italy, the exquisite cuisine surely will be.

7.) Kiawah Island, SC. USA

An oasis just 25 miles southwest of Charleston, Kiawah Island has all the intimacy of an isle coupled with the luxury living of a city... with beachfront views.

8.) Mykonos, Greece

Life is an endless celebration in Mykonos during the summer. But you can experience a more subdued style of island life after August among the whitewashed houses and cobblestone streets.
