Buying a static caravan is a big investment – not just financially but
as a lifestyle purchase.
For most who browse and search for static caravans for sale, not
only do they want a good and long term investment but something that they can
enjoy for themselves or rent out as an extra source of income. Either way, a
static caravan designed for regular use needs to be in good condition and well
maintained – which is where this blog comes in.
In it, we’ve compiled some of the most frequently asked questions
regarding the purchase and enjoyment of static caravans. And if you can’t find
the answer you’re looking for, you can always get in touch directly!
Caravan Purchase: FAQs
●
What are the main features I need to consider?
Perhaps the most important thing to consider when buying a static
caravan is its size and where you are going to place it. Typically, caravans
are marketed and advertised according to the number of bedrooms, the size of
the living area, and whether or not they have a self-contained or built-in
outside space. Consider your budget and your user needs before buying.
●
How do I move a static caravan from dealership
to destination?
Most reputable suppliers and dealership sellers will offer a service
to help move your caravan to its final destination. This includes delivery,
levelling the ground, and siting the caravan – and will often include a site
visit beforehand to assess the suitability. All of this comes at a price which
needs to be agreed beforehand.
Caravan Ownership: FAQs
●
Where can I put my caravan?
A static caravan presents a versatile unit which can be used as
anything from a home office to a self-contained guest house or granny annexe in
your garden, your very own holiday home or rental on a plot of land, or
something else entirely. Some caravan parks and sites may also allow you to
move a static caravan onto their ground as a long term rental – however, these
parks are few and far between as most have their own caravans for hire or sale.
●
What does over-wintering involve?
Wondering how to protect your caravan over winter? If you’re a fair
weather user and are wondering how best to winterise your static caravan, the
main points to consider are draining the caravan of all water (which could
otherwise freeze and damage the pipes), leaving cupboard doors open to allow
air circulation, removing all food, and taking steps to reduce the formation
and build-up of damp.
Where to find your perfect static caravan?
Our final question – where can you find the right static caravan for
you?
Dealerships tend to offer the most versatile selections, enabling
buyers to browse according to their budget and preferences. You can also ask
for advice on what to look for and how to make the most of your caravan.
