'Guaranteed' Rentals

The theory is that if you plan things carefully and have your home marketed correctly rental income will reduce your ownership costs, mainly the mortgage, and may actually exceed the costs - leaving you in profit.

On guaranteed rental income schemes be careful - check just what is being 'guaranteed'.

Some 'guarantees' are based on weeks' occupany - not income - and achieve high occupancy by renting out at low rates. A property management company may count bookings the owner has personally taken as if they had taken them. You do the work, they take the credit.

The best guarantee is a management company which puts the client's interest first and has good business ethics - like our Property Management company in the USA.

But your chances of breaking even on all your costs are good if the property is:

• an executive villa with a heated pool.
• on a 75% mortgage
• well managed and marketed
• within 15 minutes drive of Disney
• zoned for short term rental
• occupied for 33-34 weeks p.a.
• and your own occupancy isn't too high

The off peak season in the USA may well coincide with periods when you (or UK visitors) want to visit Florida.

For short term rentals to pay off you need a trustworthy and reliable management company, who will not overcharge for services, fail to provide them or neglect your interests.

If you buy via us our USA based property management arm, Florida Homes International Management Inc., is available to you to manage and help market your property - this is an exclusive service only available to clients who buy a property via Florida Homes.
