In short: Caravan parks earn income from pitch fees, caravan or lodge sales, and holiday lets. Every site needs planning permission and a site licence from the council, which sets limits on numbers and the open season. Residential park homes are covered by the Mobile Homes Act 1983, which protects residents and limits the commission a site owner can take on a sale to 10%. Check licence conditions, flood risk, infrastructure such as drainage and electrics, and the accounts. Fraser Bond can help value and market leisure property.
