Valuing a vacation home

Let Notar value your vacation home and provide you with advice about how you can positively influence the value of your property. Unlike a normal home, where a number of different factors come into consideration, the location of your vacation home is easily the single most important aspect, even though there are other things that you can do to increase the value of your property. We will value your vacation home completely free of charge!

In addition to the actual location, the area in which your vacation home is situated and the condition of the property are other factors that also affect the value. Even though the condition of the property is often a secondary consideration, as the seller you should still make sure that any flaws – both large and small – are rectified before putting the property on the market. If you carry out renovations or install electricity cables and water pipes to achieve a fully functional bathroom and kitchen, your vacation home can be habitable for a longer period of time, which is likely to make it more attractive to many potential buyers.

What is your vacation home used for??

Depending on what your vacation home is primarily used for, its proximity to various opportunities for leisure activities is the most crucial factor.

• Is it situated close to water e.g. a lake or the sea?
• Is there hunting land nearby?
• Are there opportunities to go skiing?
• Is it situated close to a large city or town?

Naturally it is the owner who decides what the property is to be used for, although there are still certain guidelines that should be taken into consideration, especially with regard to any other vacation homes in the nearby area.

Valuation and advice

During our valuation of your vacation home, your estate agent will also highlight things that you may be able to do in order to increase the value of your property. At the same time, you have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have, in order to gain a better understanding of how the value is arrived at and what you can do to positively influence the value of your property. Prior to the valuation, which can either be performed digitally or via a physical meeting, it is a good idea to compile all conceivable information that could be of importance to the valuation.

The right time to sell

Choosing the right time to sell your vacation home could be crucial when it comes to achieving the best possible price. Vacation homes are often sold a few months prior to the peak season for the activity for which the vacation home is intended.

• Summer houses and torp cottages are usually sold during the spring
• Mountain cabins and ski cabins are often sold in the autumn
