Rental property 'needs to stand out'

Owners of rental accommodation overseas have been urged to make their properties stand out when promoting it online.

According to Sarah Chambers of Holiday-Rentals, it is a good idea for investors to market their residence to consumers on the internet.

She stated that advertising on their own website would be beneficial to property owners, along with displaying their homes on other online portals.

Speaking to the Independent, she said this would help ensure that an investor's property is visible to prospective visitors.

Ms Chambers commented: "You need to advertise somewhere where you'll definitely be seen."

She added that property owners need to display "great" photos and descriptions of every room, along with information on available facilities and the surrounding region.

According to market research group Datamonitor, people in the UK and Ireland currently own more than 3.8 million overseas properties.
