Most Landlords Worry Temporary Accommodation Means Lower Rents and Trashed Properties
It’s a common conviction among landlords – Venturing into temporary accommodation is a surefire way to devalue your investment.
Many believe that their properties will be trashed, they’ll receive lower-than-market rents, and they’ll face endless battles to regain possession from tenants who won’t leave.
The fear that lenders won’t finance such properties only adds to the hesitation. Stories of broken windows, mounting repair costs, unpaid rent, and legal headaches abound. With so much uncertainty, it’s no wonder landlords are sceptical.
