Second/Holiday Home Ownership Increased During 2009

Posted by admin on August 17, 2010 under Holiday Home Owners | Be the First to Comment

According to a report out today from Knight Frank, the number of second homes in Britain increased by 2.6%, to reach record levels of 245,384. Knight Frank also expect the second home ownership to increase again by 2% in 2010.

In the coming years, it is predicted that there will be an increase of overseas visitors to Britain and with Staycations and short breaks on the increase, getting good yields on renting these properties is more achievable and much better than short term lets.

If you consider purchasing a holiday home or second home  in Cornwall, to rent it out, or just keep it for family use, then we can help every step of the way.  We can advise and help with:

> Which areas of Cornwall work really well.

> Introduce you to either the properties that we know are for sale or to property finders or well placed estate agents.

> Advice on furnishings and property improvements which we can do for smaller projects or we can put you in contact with reputable builders.

> Help you with your legal compliance

> Help put you in touch with either letting agents that we know will get you good quality bookings or help you to device your own website, booking systems etc.

> Moving forward, we can clean your property using our well trained housekeepers, deal with the linen and laundry, property management, property maintenance, ongoing legal compliance, 24 hour guest helpline, liase with your booking agent and provide holiday lifestyle service to your guests.

As a very unique, holiday home services specialist in Cornwall, we can help you with every aspect of purchasing and then running a holiday/ second home, no matter where you live.

Goodbye 2009, Hello 2010!

Posted by admin on December 21, 2009 under Holiday Home General Items | Be the First to Comment

As we get ever closer to 2010, I start to review 2009 before we say goodbye to it.

2009 was another exceptional year for Perfect Example. We exceeded most of our self imposed targets, grew the business, employed more staff and generally had a very good time. 2009 will be remembered as, even though the UK was in recession, as an exceptional year for luxury self catering holidays, more visitors to Cornwall and more people enjoying staycations and realising that they don’t have to go abroad to have a great holiday.

We look forward to 2010 and increasing the luxury properties that we look after, welcoming more people to Cornwall and working at mach 10 everyday!!!

Have a merry Christmas and happy new year.
