Tips from a financial expert

Speaking with Rachel Springall from Moneyfacts.co.uk, she shared that:

"a holiday-let works similarly to a buy-to-let mortgage, except there are additional criteria for these loans which allow borrowers to let out the property to holiday makers".

Rachel added that

"as there has been a rise in UK vacations due to the pandemic, it’s understandable to see the potential to invest in a holiday home".

To dispel that daunting feeling, she suggests it’s wise to

"undertake thorough research into popular locations, weigh up tax benefits, read up on rules regarding residency periods and other potential expenses outside of utility bills".
