Holiday cottages are an increasingly popular and
worthwhile form of investment, especially during the last few years of weak
stock markets. Net returns on investment are excellent, with the added benefit
of increased capital value. Despite all the scare-mongering in the press the
property market is still buoyant with average annual increases still around
10%. There have been pockets where values have fallen, but these are confined
mostly to inner London. There are significant tax breaks for holiday cottage
operators; firstly you automatically qualify for the much sought-after
self-employed status which allows you to deduct motoring expenses, computer
equipment and much more from your taxable profits each year. More significant
is the Capital Gains Tax (CGT) business taper, which holiday cottages also
qualify for. This means that your CGT liability decreases from a possible
maximum of 40% to a mere 10% after just 2 years of trading. The demand for
self-catering holidays is beginning to outstrip supply, many properties are
already taking bookings for 2005! The internet is the perfect tool for
marketing holidays, being global, 24/7 and usually up-to-the-minute. If you
have a lump-sum to invest, or are thinking of borrowing, there has never been a
better time. Interest rates are still low and are set to stabilise at least for
the next few terms of government (10 yrs ?). Running a holiday let business
is far less time consuming than say a B&B or hotel, changeovers are usually
once a week, and most of the work can if required be put out to contractors
with the owner playing only a supervisory role.
