Keeping up with your vacation home's repair needs
Holiday homes are usually vacant for up to nine months a year, with problems sometimes detected late, when they’re already at an advanced stage.
That's why when it comes to holiday homes, you need to respond in a timely manner to maintenance, repairs and required renovations, just like with your primary home. The time will surely come when you’ll have to cope with the expenses that are necessary for an upgrade or a restoration, which will improve your home both aesthetically and functionally, so it’s wise to have an amount available that allows you to better manage such needs.
Ways to manage unexpected costs
Using your credit card is a good solution when dealing with small-scale repairs and renovations or purchases of household appliances. Credit cards are a valuable financial tool to have. Most credit companies, in addition to the option of interest-free instalments, have special loyalty programs, such as NBG's GoForMore, that enable you to benefit even more through point redemption and monthly offers at various stores, such as those selling household goods and appliances.
But what about the larger-scale repairs and renovations? A fairly affordable and quick financing option is the personal loan. With personal loans, you don’t commit to borrowing high amounts. Another advantage is the immediate evaluation of their application, even within 24 hours, as is the case for example with personal loan EXPRESS. Repair loans are also a solution, as they are usually short-term and specially designed to cover renovation needs. NBG offers personalized options through the ESTIA programs that are tailored for repairs, energy upgrades or even the conversion of your home into a smart home through the use of technology. Contact our specialized staff members at one of NBG's Branches, and find the best option for your repair or renovation needs. Exploring all available solutions brings you one step closer to improving your home.
There's a solution for everything!
So, any unexpected damages will be more manageable and affordable, while an upgrade or renovation of your space could be a relatively hassle-free interlude in your summer schedule.
