Do houseboats gain equity ? Especially new builds? (sold say 5 years after purchase?)?
Especially with new developments with regards to future security for tenure of residential moorings , and the rising prices of steel.
Answers:
To be honest, the mooring will probably be your best investment. Look for somewhere up and coming
I know that there are some people in the norfolk broads will sell boat shells and stuff to build your own - they quote about 50% profit on outlay, but it's a lot of work.
No, look on EBay, people only make money on them by buying old ones and renovating, thats all though, new ones will depreciate, just like caravans, motorhomes and static park homes
i don't know 4 sure, but i doubt it, i would assume that it will be valued like a car or caravan etc, it may not lose it value as quickly as these
Why buy a house, when ye can buy a house boat! Don't forget to check out the galley, thats real shag carpeting!
Sorry I couldn't resist!
No.
REAL estate is the only thing to increase in value over time - the moorings might if you own them.
