TV’s, paintings, floral arrangements etc.

Not included
Jacuzzi, any lot premiums applicable, closing costs & contingency funds.
Interest rates of 5.5 % and the exchange rates of £1=$1.80 are assumed for illustration purposes only.
Please note there will be an additional amount for closing costs for items such as pre-payment for taxes, insurance, notary costs and title insurances.  The amount is dependent on many factors like the purchase price, mortgage amount, property taxes etc.  We can provide you with an estimate of your own circumstances now if you wish but for a rough and ready figure we would recommend allowing around $5,000 for this.  (This compares to the completion costs in UK home purchases except that the UK costs are generally higher for some transactions and may attract a stamp duty as well).  As stated on our mortgage page:  please also note that some lenders require you to show funds equivalent to 6 months mortgage payment when approving a loan.

The above rental examples would still leave a minimum of 12 weeks (17 weeks with 35 weeks rentals) for use by you, your family or friends.  The equivalent minimum value each year to you will be $10,800 or £6,000 !!

We have illustrated between 35 and 40 weeks of rentals as our clients who currently need the income from the rents for these periods easily achieve this. Many achieve more then 40 Weeks and some cash purchasers are generally happy with just 20 weeks or even less, to pay for the expenses of the villa and several holidays each year in it.
