Annual Costs

Before completing our trial buy all annual costs were clearly explained and were reasonable.

Rates: £317.50

Electricity & Gas: Depends on usage (especially early and late season).

Insurance: Our quote was £265 fully comprehensive

Rental income: It is important to remember that you can offset you running costs by subletting (read our dedicated section on this). Obviously income will depend on how often and what time of the year you sublett. Your park owner should be able to give you an estimation of potential rental income. If you sublet in key summer holiday weeks this income can be substantial.
