Hi!
Just to be clear: I've never rented out anything in my life. I will however, if everything goes as planned, be renting out my first flat this summer. I'm 19 years old and have NO professional or formal qualifications to answer your question.
HOWEVER -- If I were to buy your estate:
- Can you provide proof from, f.x., AirBnB, private invoices, etc., that people want to rent the house? What months are the most popular, how many days each month is booked, how much can you charge per room, why is the estate attractive?
- Are there any popular tourist spots nearby? For example: I'm from Lofoten in Norway, a very popular tourist place. A cabin by the sea with poor standard would rent for more money than a flat of good standard in the city centre of Leknes, because the city centre doesn't look good and doesn't provide the experience people travel there for. What "uniqueness" does your estate have, that others nearby don't have?
- What has the estate sold for previously, can you justify the price increase?
- Get review from previous guests, review their positive feedback and use these as sales arguments -- take the negative feedback into consideration. If there is anything you can fix, how expensive is it? If you can fix it -- do it. 9/10 times you'll see the money as an investment that creates more profit for you.
As I said in the introduction, I'm 19 years old. This list however is compiled of things I would look after should I get the money to invest in more estates. If you need any help getting rid of the estate, don't hesitate to contact me.
