The Resale Market That Nobody Talks About…
When most people buy at a holiday park, they’re told:
“If you ever want to leave, you can just sell it.”
It sounds simple. But for many owners across the UK, selling hasn’t been straightforward at all.The Reality Most Owners Discover
Over time, owners tell us they encounter:
- Long waiting lists of unsold units
- Heavy Park commission on private sales
- Restrictions on advertising independently
- Buyers being steered toward brand new models instead
- Trade-in offers far below expectations
- Repercussions from the park for trying to sell privately (watch the video below of our clients´ experience when they tried to sell privately)
Suddenly, what felt like an asset feels… stuck. Not only stuck but continually draining your finances with ongoing costs.
Why This Happens
Holiday parks are commercial businesses. In most cases, and aside from pitch fees, parks earn their money by:
- Selling new units
- Financing upgrades
- Taking commission on resales
That doesn’t automatically mean anything improper — but it does mean the resale market isn’t always as open or competitive as owners expect. And that’s the part rarely explained at purchase.
The Question Owners Should Ask
If selling becomes difficult…What are your actual options?
👉🏻 Can you challenge commission terms?
👉🏻 Can you sell independently?
👉🏻 Are there contractual exit clauses?
👉🏻 Has the park changed rules since you bought?
Most owners don’t know.
Before you put your lodge on the resale board, it’s worth understanding where you really stand.
