Of all the user models, the Rental Ownership user model is most similar to the current BEX agreement. However, there are a few important differences and advantages:
- More stable rental income: with a BEX contract, you receive income from your own property, whereas with Rental Ownership, your property is part of the rental pool and the risk is spread. Read more on the Rental Pool page.
- Higher rental income: properties in the rental pool can be occupied more efficiently because there is more freedom to utilise the full capacity of the park.
- No advance payment: the annual costs that you pay to BEX at the start of the year are included in the result in the Rental Ownership model. You will no longer receive an invoice for the services included.
- No cost risk: you fix the Rental Ownership percentage for the duration of the agreement. This means that if the rates at your park increase, you will not be adversely affected. The Rental Ownership percentage is not adjusted during the term of the agreement.
- More flexible personal use: personal use of your holiday home no longer affects your results (up to 105 points). Under the current BEX agreement, personal use means that you exclude the property from bookings. Because the Rental Ownership model involves renting through the rental pool, this can be inconvenient for you. Last-minute bookings are also sometimes possible if another holiday home is available for the guest.
