If you’re looking to invest in a static caravan but don’t think it’s something that you will use regularly enough, then why not consider offering it as a rental for set periods during the year?
Not only will renting out your static caravan grant you some extra income, but it will also ensure that your caravan does not stand empty. Maintaining regular occupation all year round is an important part of keeping the water pipes flowing and the unit as temperate and fresh as possible.
With that said, let’s take a closer look at how you can transform one of the many used static caravans for sale into your very own rental business.
How to Manage a Rental
The first thing you need to consider before renting out a static caravan is where you will place the caravan, and whether you want to manage it as a short term holiday let or on a longer term basis.
The build and quality of modern static caravans is such that they can be lived in all year round and are just as likely to be found in gardens and private dwellings as they are on commercial lots and holiday sites. Because of this, when it comes to managing your rental, it is largely a matter of preference and whether you want to be able to visit your caravan when you want to or if you want to view it as a source of income and rent it out on a longer term basis.
Decorating a Static Caravan to Rent Out
The tips we are about to share are valid and true of any kind of rental. When it comes to renting out a static caravan however, the way you use and maximise the space is more important than ever, owing to the compact footprint of such units.
Because of this, it is important not to fill a static caravan with too much clutter, and to keep the decoration as simple, neutral, and minimal as possible.
Some tips include considering the must-haves of everyday and holiday living and ensuring that both the inside and outside spaces are used in the most space-efficient way possible. Local views and decorative accessories are a nice touch if you are offering the unit as a holiday rental, or you can leave room for a long-term tenant’s own decoration.
Choose the Right Unit
Finally, to the unit itself. Depending on how you want to rent out your caravan and where you want to position it, different units of different sizes have their own individual assets and key features.
Be sure to view different static caravans based on your preferences, consider extra features like winterisation packages, and ensure that the size fits in your ideal location! For more information, get in touch with your local supplier to book a viewing.
