Home Rental Agreement

I met lots of vacation homeowners who rent without a written contract. They do so at their peril. Although the majority of tenants are very good holiday and get out of there way to keep your property in order, it only takes one incident a misunderstanding or bad tenant who can really spell trouble.

For example, I had an experience where 12 people showed up to rent an island house rental that only a specified limit occupancy of 6 in the advertising and contracts. A dozen people in a small space can save much wear on the ownership, let alone the use of utilities. If it were not a maximum occupancy in the contract, it would have been more difficult to apply, and to ask more people to find another place. Another reason to have a maximum occupancy limit the major parties of residence. You want that many tenants have parties of fifty people in your house 4-6 people capacity for weddings, meetings, etc.

Relying on personal experience to help customize your contract. I meet a short-term tenant who re-arranged the furniture around and put all the ornaments in the closet. It was a desire to move everything back to the original order. Now I phrase in our contracts, "the reorganization of furniture or decoration is not allowed".

As an owner of rental holiday homes sites http://www.allrentals2remember.com and http://www.eleuthera-bahamas-vacation-rentals.com , I thought it was important to provide Contract advice that can be beneficial to property owners. All leases may differ slightly, but there are certain elements that should be crucial to your lease holiday:

Payment Terms
Deposit and Refund
Cancellation Policy (including no-shows, late arrivals and early departures)
Check-in and check-out
Occupancy Limit
Care Property, furniture, appliances (do not move the furniture around)
Politics cleaning, garbage
Policy of keeping home safe (locked when you're away)
Other considerations could be a company policy or a policy on smoking.

I always recommend you consult a lawyer first check your lease to ensure it complies with local and state government or its laws of association, and to ensure it covers all questions necessary to protect you as owner.
