How to Book a Rental Home

Some people are surprised to discover just how many rental properties are located in Southport. With such a big selection, vacationers are sure to discover a rental that fits their desires and spending plan.

Rental homes are commonly owner operated or managed by rental management companies. Property management companies are liked by rental owners because they coordinate the internet marketing and operations..

Here are some ideas and techniques to help you understand the vacation rental search and reservation process.

Searching for and reserving the perfect rental:

Before you decide to book "Sumter Avenue, Carolina Beach, NC The Family Beach House", examine our short checklist of things to consider.

Begin Your Search Early

Southport rental homes are reserved many months (and up to a year) in advance. To ensure the greatest selection of properties, we advise searching and reserving your Southport rental home Six-Twelve months in advance, whenever you can. Many families prefer to start their search during Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years Eve holiday gatherings.

Pick your Place and Travel Week

Sometimes, the most challenging portion of scheduling your vacation is deciding on where to search, and when. Once the big decisions are hammered out, everything else becomes simpler.

Just How Many Bedrooms?

Take a head count. How many beds and bedrooms will you be needing? Keep in mind that most properties advertise maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in the living room space. You will need to figure out what is suitable for your group. Precise descriptions of bedrooms and beds are commonly available on the internet. If not, email or call the property owner before you reserve the home.

What Exactly Are You Prepared to Shell out?

Many vacation rentals are marketed with a price range. Determine the rate for your chosen stay. It could be at the high end of the range. If multiple individuals or family members are sharing the cost, make sure that each group understands their responsibility and has approved a maximum they are willing to pay. A single individual in your family needs to be in charge of collecting contributions and acknowledging responsibility for the entire rental cost at time of reservation.

Its All About Amenities

What property features is the family looking for? Are you looking for a vacation property with open-air kitchen? Will the property need to be beachfront, in the downtown area, or close to shopping? Are extras like beach chairs, gas grills, umbrellas, carts or coolers at your disposal and included with your rental rate? Make a list of prioritized "needs and wants" from your company to help filter your search to the most appropriate property.

Accessibility and Special Factors to consider

Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. If wheel chair accessibility, elevators, pool lifts or other specialized devices are required, factor that into your search. Nearly all property postings will include a list of amenities.

Have You Considered 4-Legged Family Members?

Don't forget to include your best friend! While many vacation homes permit dogs and cats, guidelines and charges vary per rental. Type of animal, size and breeds can be limited. Examine your contract carefully! Fees may apply when animals are added.

Its Time to Search

A number of websites exist to match renters with rental home owners.. Besides Homeaway, VRBO and Tripadvisor, we suggest searching Google for "Southport local vacation rentals" for local rental home management companies. Apart from having distinctive properties, local companies offer you fantastic service..

Negotiate

When you have found your dream rental, double check to make sure your trip dates are available.

Some property owners will negotiate rates, and some won't. If they are unwilling to budge on a peak-season stay, try getting an additional night. Off-peak weeks will likely be negotiable more frequently than peak-season..

Study the Agreement

Discover which of the following is included in your quoted rate:

• Utilities
• Internet Connectivity
• Long Distance Phone Service
• Pool Heating
• Cable and pay-per-view TV
• Housekeeping
• Trash Pickup (and which day?)
• Maintenance policies
• Check in & Check Out Key Exchange
• Parking Space

Ensure that your quoted fee includes all taxes and fees.

What's the Cancellation Policy?

Ensure you are familiar with the cancellation policy prior to booking. Rental management companies and home owners often offer their guests the choice to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which typically costs somewhere between 1% - 5% of your standard rental home rate, provides travellers with reimbursement of their vacation costs (and subsequent vacation property costs) for any days missed a result of personal health related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as a unexpected hotel stay or additional gas.

Complete the Booking

After you believe you've identified "the one", start the reservation process. You'll likely need to submit a security deposit at time of reservation.

Where to Get Assistance

Make sure to get the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the contact's information in your smartphone and wallet.

Good luck on reserving your rental home! You're on the right path to a wonderful vacation!
