One of the most important factors to consider when buying a caravan is whether you want to buy a static or mobile caravan. Both have their advantages depending on your requirements.
A static caravan can be an ideal holiday home for those who have favorite places that they like to return to again and again, it also offers all the comforts of home such as toilets, showers, cooking facilities, heating and water. stream. This is because static caravans are moved to a chosen permanent plot of land, primarily a caravan site. There is access to your own water and electricity supply and this is normally included in the rent for the plot being used. The gas must be brought separately; these come in cans and can usually be purchased on site or nearby.
Static caravans can also be a great investment if you are prepared to rent them. There is a lot of money to be made by renting out your caravan during peak seasons such as school holidays. During peak season in the summer holidays caravans can fetch up to £500 per week if your site has all the amenities such as club house and leisure facilities.
If you are a tourist who prefers to travel to different places, then a tourist caravan may be more suitable. These have tow bars that allow you to hook it up to your car or truck and travel to your destination. Most sites will have electrical connections that you can use, there will also be showers and toilet facilities on site. The beauty of touring caravans is that you never get tired of visiting the same place, you can choose to stay in a different area each time you leave.
Another important factor to consider is whether to buy used caravans or not. Whether you’re looking for a static or touring caravan, you can often get a great deal if you buy second hand. While you can get a cheap price this way, it’s important to check the condition of the camper before you buy. Make sure everything is working fine and the condition is as stated and expected. If you are going to buy a static caravan, ask if your caravan comes with the plot on which it is located or if you need to find a new one. You should look at how much the fees are too.
If you decide to buy used caravans make sure they are safe and if it is a touring caravan make sure it is roadworthy. Those who are on a budget will probably prefer to buy second hand, this does not mean that they will be old and worn, second hand could mean that they are only a few years old. The cost of caravans depreciates in the same way that a vehicle does. A beautiful modern caravan can be purchased for much less than the retail price of buying the same new one.
Your lifestyle and preferences will ultimately be the deciding factor in the type of caravan you choose, but no matter what you decide, you will enjoy your purchase for years to come.
