A. You make an initial payment of anything from £5,000 and pay a quarterly fee of around £30 (that is around £120 a year), linked to RPI. This gives you access to all HPB’s 1,400+ holiday homes.
A. After an initial charge of 25%, it is invested in a fund of holiday properties and securities. The fund itself then meets annual charges of 2.5% and other overheads. The return on your investment is purely in the form of the enjoyment you experience from your holidays. As with most investments, your capital is at risk.
A. For each visit you will pay a no profit user charge, calculated to cover property running and maintenance costs, such as electricity, cleaning, gardening, refurbishment and local taxes and use of on-site facilities but with no profit rental element. The charge stays level throughout the year, so there are no high season premiums. For a studio for two this will average about £300 a week, for a two-bedroom property for four around £460 a week. Larger properties are also available.
A. Yes. You can surrender your investment back to the company after two years or more (subject to deferral in exceptional circumstances) but you will not get back the full amount you invested. What you do get back will reflect the charges referred to earlier, as well as other overheads and changes in the value of the fund’s properties and securities.
A. A large part of the initial charges pays for future marketing of the Bond. The more Bondholders and the more investment we can attract, the more properties the Bond can buy – increasing your choice of holiday. Annual charges go toward the administration of the fund, operating the holiday booking system and providing support to Bondholders, helping you book and enjoy your holidays.
