With holidays abroad becoming more and more expensive, an increasing number of Brits are looking to holiday closer to home. Caravan holiday parks throughout the UK are becoming increasingly popular as a cheaper alternative to that much sought after foreign holiday. With these trips comes the opportunity to purchase your very own static holiday home - a good idea for those families planning to re-visit the same holiday park several times a year.
Having the freedom to go on holiday whenever you like without the worry of your favourite holiday park being fully booked or having all your favourite foods, toys, games, books and DVDs stored safely in your caravan awaiting your next visit, can be extremely appealing to those who regularly go on caravan holidays. Owning your own static caravan certainly has its benefits, however it can also be quite costly.
As well as the cost of buying your static caravan, there are also other more regular payments that must be taken into consideration. The yearly site fees will be the biggest expense and these will vary depending on which part of the site your caravan is situated. On top of this there will be caravan insurance, gas (which may be purchased by the bottle), electricity and general maintenance to your caravan and surrounding plot. Once you have purchased your caravan, these running costs can seem quite overwhelming, especially if you are using your property less than initially anticipated. For those struggling with the upkeep of their static holiday home, there is a simple solution that will allow you to keep your property whilst bring in an income that will help with those running costs - sub-letting.
By sub-letting your caravan, you can make money from your holiday home when it would normally not be in use. Why leave your caravan empty for most of the year when you could be renting it to like-minded holidaymakers and bringing additional income into your home year after year? By doing so, you get the best of both worlds. You can choose when you would like to visit your static caravan, and then decide which weeks you would like to rent it out to other individuals or families. More importantly - as it is your caravan, you can decide how much you would like to charge for weekend, mid-week, or weekly breaks. You can set your fees with the seasons - increasing them at peak times. For your own piece of mind, you can charge your guests a non-refundable deposit, as well as a deposit for breakages. You are in charge, the rules are yours to set!
For those with more than one static caravan, whether they are on the same site or different sites throughout the UK, sub-letting your caravans can really be a profitable business. As the caravan owner you would have a choice of free caravan holiday destinations every year, whilst bringing in an income that pays for your investment, and leaves you with substantial profits.
