It seems yesterday's news is a hot topic among my peer group who own second properties.
They all seem to be looking to sell or just leave it there for the odd own use it kids maybe when uni starts.
But the common thread is that they don't want to rent them out anymore for the meagre profits they would get vs all the rule changing and general pain a landlord will have to ensure, or worse.
Two guys at work this morning had been speaking last night about doing holiday swaps. It looks like you can let people use your property and get a certain amount of points per night used and then use those points to rent out properties abroad that you would like to stay in. I will find out more.
I thought that was a great idea.
I'm thinking this will get big in Ireland.
There may be a business opportunity here
Anyone got any other ideas.
