Tips on Buying a Preowned Static Caravan
If you really love the idea of owning your very own holiday home, in the form of a static caravan, but feel that buying a brand new model is out of your price range, then one option is to look into buying a pre-owned model direct from a private owner, if you look carefully you can get a real bargain!
But before you jump straight in, there are numerous questions that you need to ask, this may seen an obvious statement, but it is easy to get carried away, especially if you are a first time buyer.caravan camps north wales
If the caravan you are looking to buy is situated on a holiday park, most parks charge a commission of around 15% ( but of course this can vary depending on the individual park), you will need to check with the private owner whether this commission is included in the sale price. You should also check the yearly cost of running the holiday home (known as site fees), i.e. ground rent, rates and insurance, sublet fee (if you plan on subletting), gas, electric and any other costs. It is also a good idea to find out how the site fees have changed over the last few years, of course this can’t be used as a sure indication of how they will change in the future, but it may give you some idea, so it’s worth asking.
