There is so much doom and gloom about (and that is not talking about the rather unpleasant weather in the south of England during the first couple of weeks of May) with news of uncertainty in Greece over their retaing the Euro, far too many properties empty in Spain and prices of property still very low in Ireland.
You might have a holiday home in one of these countries. If you have never considered letting it out to help pay some of the costs? (there are always costs involved even if you don't have mortgage - local taxes, maintenance etc).
Your holiday home might already be on the rental market, but you are not getting the bookings this year. People are watcing their money carefully before spending it on holidays.
There are solutions. One is to advertise it on www.jmlvillas.com . Oh no you say that means spending even more money. I have already booked advertising in this villa magazine and the Sunday something or other for 3 weeks and alltogether it has cost me a lot of money. Well advertising on jmlvillas.com won't exactly break the bank balance. Far from it. It costs about the same as 4 bottles of wine does in an average UK supermarket. Just £12.50 (that GBP Twelve pounds fifty pence) for ONE YEAR. That means the ad is there for all the year for thw world to view on the web.
There are plenty of information guides for owners and their guests as well.
If you are not getting the volume off booking that you got last year look at your prices. As stated earlier people are generally on much tighter budgets now and even though air travel, car hire and insurance are still very good value in many cases and even if the renter is coming from a country outside the Eurozone where exchange rates are good at the moment, they are concerned about extras when they arrive.
It is better to reduce your price a little than to leave the property empty.
jmlvillas.com has been promoting self catering holiday rentals for ten years now. All the dealing are carried out between property owner and renter and all the owner has to do is to pay for an exceptionally inexpensive advertisement. You add your own description room, by room, what to do in the area, 6 photos and your prices and change details whenever you want at no additional charge.
So don't leave the Greek, Irish or Spanish holiday rental empty( or any holiday rental in other countries),but list it today HERE
