Hello people
Apologies if I am in the wrong section but I was hoping to seek some advice from anyone who uses one of their properties fro short term rentals.
I have a furnished house in Rosebud I was hoping to use for holiday rentals. I realise the market is strongest over summer but I have just finished cleaning it all up!!
My questions are:
Do you get tenants to sign any lease/ rental agreement?
Do you charge a bond? If so how much i.e. if they stay a week do you ask for a weeks bond also or stay a monthly get a month bond?
Is it a different type of landlords insurance that covers short term rentals?
If they ask to stay for a couple of months would you recommend they get the bills on in their names or charge extra and leave the bills in your own name?
Last of all please share any good / bad experiences that you have had that might give me something to think about!
Thanks people I appreciate any comments you may give me as I am a complete novice at this type business
Warm Regards
