FAQ
- What distinguishes a B&B from other accommodation?TGCSA describes a bed and breakfast as accommodation in a home where the host lives on the property, guests share public areas and breakfast is provided. Confirm the operation matches this category before valuing its grading.
- Can the property lawfully operate as a B&B?Check municipal zoning or consent use, approved plans, room numbers, occupancy, parking, signage and fire requirements. Compare authorised use with the actual guest layout, owner accommodation, events, employees and any planned expansion.
- Does the B&B's star grading continue after the sale?Verify the establishment in the TGCSA register, its category, current grade and renewal status. Obtain guidance on ownership or management changes and do not market stars unless the establishment remains validly graded.
- What food compliance applies to breakfast service?Verify the Certificate of Acceptability, named person in charge and food-handling scope for the kitchen. Review inspection, refrigeration, cleaning and allergen records, including food prepared off-site or supplied by external caterers.
- How should future bookings and guest deposits be handled?Reconcile every booking, deposit, voucher, refund and platform commission to the reservation system and bank. Define who must honour each stay or cancellation, and adjust completion working capital for deferred accommodation revenue and guest obligations.
- Which property and household costs affect the valuation?Separate business and owner use of utilities, vehicles, staff and accommodation. Review title, mortgage, rates, insurance, furniture, backup power and maintenance, identifying personal assets or expenses that will not continue under new ownership.
