BECOMING A SHORT-TERM RENTAL LANDLORD IN CARDIFF

If you’re looking for an auxiliary income or perhaps a change in direction, there are plenty of readily available opportunities to get yourself into the short-term rental sector. 

The housing and rental market is very different now from even a few years ago. In little more than a decade, the rise of the need for short-term rental properties is increasing year on year. One of the driving factors in this surge is the ability for people new to being a landlord to enter the market with relative ease.

If you’re thinking of starting a new short term letting business venture, Cardiff’s the ideal place. With so many companies around to work with, you’re likely to find the right chain of customers and clients. And for any prospective landlord, it’s vital to start thinking of researching what sort of networks you’ll need to make to get the right services for your company.

Tips on Becoming a short-term Landlord in Cardiff –

For a lot of people, the reason they consider becoming a short-term rental landlord is that they have a second flat or apartment. They’re not using it all the time and realise that they can make some extra money from it. However, it’s not that simple for many of us, so let’s look at the alternatives.

Let’s assume that you might be starting from scratch. You’ll need to enter the market as a new property buyer, which will require some planning and available capital. The first thing you should do is work out what sort of budget you have now. From there, you need to know what type of mortgages are available to you, so you’ll need to arrange a meeting with a mortgage broker as soon as possible. Mortgage brokers are very helpful and will give you unbiased advice based on your circumstances.

One option that could work is a buy-to-let mortgage. If you go online and search for this scheme, there are independent sites that provide the criteria. Some banks also have an online calculator which should show your eligibility. Often your bank will not offer the best rate, you should certainly sop around when purchasing a mortgage, the total repayment can vary wildly.

Another route to getting a second property is to purchase at a property auction. You will need to develop the property, so keep this in mind. This is by far the most time-consuming and labour-intensive of your options. Financially, this could eventually be the most lucrative but it’s not for the feint hearted. You will need bags of enthusiasm or at least a little experience to peruse this option. Should you follow this route you may realise that you don’t need your current job anyway. You can then ditch the 9-5 for the luxurious life of a property developer. Ok Maybe that is a bit farfetched and it certainly won’t happen for everyone, but we can all dream hey?

Once you have a property or progressing significantly with one, go online to check out the options you have when it comes to advertising your short-term rental property. The easiest way to enter this market is via an online platform like Airbnb. If you don’t intend on doing the day-to-day duties, you’ll need to get someone to manage your property. There are lots of people who specialise in things like Airbnb management, so get in touch with a few now.
