“Not a single tenant has been voorschotteruggevraagd”

“We do have cancellations through the end of may, but we have to have everybody in the deposit to keep. No one has the money recovered, not even by those people who have not yet set another date to have passed. This is amazing,” says Birgit Defoort, who, a few years ago to 150,000 euro for a house in Glenelg bought it.

“of Course, we would lose money, about 6000 euro, but that is not a big problem. It is never our intention to make a profit with this property, because I’m going to do four times a year to visit. The rentals are actually an added benefit.”

Virus-keep away

“Glenelg, is a little far away, and their biggest concern there is for the corona virus in the neighborhood. For this reason, tourists in the highlands will not be at the top. And for good reason. It’s going to be one of the older people, and in addition, you will want to be there, really is not seriously ill, as the nearest clinic is two hours away by car. In addition, the social security system, there is a lot less than we do.
