Sale of FHL

Accounts format etc

Didn't find your answer?

Hi all

I currenlty operate 3 FHLs.

I am currently exploring the possibility of selling and we'd like to make sure the accounts are prepared in as favourable a format as possible (of course operating within allowable perameters).

Is someone on here experienced in preparation of accounts for a FHL and how this can be done to look most attractive to a potential buyer? If so, some guidance would be appreciated!

What Items are you thinking can be presented differently than on a historical cost basis?

Are the properties in question managed via a lettings agent?

As you (currently) operate 3 Furnished holiday lettings, would it be correct to assume that you prepare annual accounts, historically and if so, why would you not wish to continue in the same format?

Surely any buyer purchasing them as FHL's will only be interested in occupancy rates and marketing suppliers and their costs re those platforms used that provided said occupancy, for instance a buyer might be doing changeovers in house, washing linen at home, doing all repairs themselves whereas you outsourced everything etc, how the business was run will have a bearing on what costs are pertinent..

I would be inclined to supply lists of lets with their dates, sums received, platform used to procure booking and not much else.

Agree, much more likely to be of interest.
