Money Saving Strategies

• Many property owners and vacation homes provide Charleston area area travel catalogs which feature promotions, either offered independently by merchants, or through a relationship between the management company and the itself. These guides can provide an excellent start to your rental search.
• Desire to avoid the packed areas and lower your expenses? The off-peak shoulder seasons will offer you incredible rates on daily rental properties.
• Active Duty and veterans of the U.S. Armed forces may qualify for promotions. Be sure to ask property manager to see if your travelling gang is eligible for a markdown.
• Some rentals are essentially catered to particular guests, whether it's downtown rentals with pier passes, city-center homes with walkable access to restaurants or waterfront homes that have their own windsurfing launching areas. You should prioritize your proximity to the outdoor activities and interesting attractions you are most excited about.
• Consider obtaining trip insurance with your lease agreement. Trip insurance, which usually add somewhere between 1% - 5% of the basic vacation rental price, offers buyers reimbursement of their trip expenses for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or hurricanes, and additionally ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or expenses, such as an unforeseen hotel room stay or extra gas. Trip insurance can be a bank account-saver if the unforseen happens .

General Rental Home Advice

Many people are surprised to learn just how many rental properties can be found in Charleston area. Vacation home accommodations have gained in popularity with the rise of global research sites like Homeaway and VRBO.

Rental homes are frequently owner operated or managed by property management companies. Vacation home management companies leverage scale, staff and practical experience to provide hassle-free operational management on behalf of the property owner..

Seasoned Charleston area vacationers have discovered several tips and tricks over the years when it comes to renting rental properties, however most novices will be delighted to learn that several "techniques" are in plain sight, if you recognize where they should look.

Searching for and reserving the right rental:

Do you believe "Dream Weaver by StayDuvet | Only 4 Blocks to King!" is the best rental home for your upcoming vacation? Read through this check list to make sure it fits all of your preferences.

The Sooner You Start, The Better The Selection

Charleston area vacation rentals book months (and up to a year) in advance. Booking your rental home 6-12 months in advance is usually recommended, when possible. Many visitors decide to start their search over Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years Eve holiday gatherings.

Find your Spot and Identify Dates

Agreement can be complicated among relatives, but once this challenging part is complete everything will begin to fall in place.

Bedrooms and Bed Sizes Matter

Take a head count. How many beds and bedrooms will you be needing? Consider that many rental homes list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in the living room. It is important to figure out what is acceptable for your party. Generally rental listings will describe each of the unit's specific bedrooms and beds.

Establish Your Budget

The majority of vacation homes are advertised with a price range. Determine the price for your chosen week. It could be at the top end of the range. Make sure you get cost-sharing commitments from company before reserving a pricey rental. Generally, a single member of the group will be liable for making the whole reservation and recovering each family member's share.

Its All About Amenities

What amenities is the group trying to find? Are you looking for a rental home with outside kitchen? Does the unit need to be oceanfront, downtown, or near wildlife? Does the unit have bikes and body boards available throughout your stay? Gather a list of prioritized "needs and wishes" from your company to help filter your search to the perfect home.

Accessability

Appropriate access could make or ruin a trip for the less-mobile. Ensure that you remember and inquire about wheelchair entry, pool lifts and special equipment needs..

Have You Considered Furry Family Members?

Are you or other individuals in the gang visiting with a family pet? While a number of vacation homes permit pets, guidelines and costs vary per rental. A number of restrictions may possibly eliminate a potential rental home. Ensure that you read descriptions and contracts carefully. Fees may apply when animals are included. Ask questions *well before* you book!

It Is Time to Search

. Besides Homeaway, VRBO and Tripadvisor, we recommend searching Google for "Charleston area local rentals" for local rental home management companies. Local companies typically have a unique assortment of vacation rentals daily and weekly.

Negotiate

Re-read the description to be certain the vacation home has everything that you need. If lacking, the property management company may know of comparable properties that better suit your preferences and budget..

Some rental home owners will negotiate prices, and some won't. If the price isn't negotiable, the number of nights might be. This is most effective throughout the off-season when many properties sit empty.

Study the Entire Agreement

Read the entire contract and be sure you are aware who is liable for:

• Utilities
• WIFI Access
• Long Distance Phone Service
• Hot Tub Heating
• Pay Per View Movies
• Cleaning Service
• Trash Pickup (and which day?)
• Maintenance policies
• Check in & Check Out Key Exchange
• Parking Fees

Make sure your quoted fee includes all taxes and fees.

If you'd like to Cancel

Cancellation policies vary for each property. You will likely be offered trip insurance. Trip insurance defends the renter against emergencies and weather events, It provides reassurance should tragedy strike.

Reserve It

When everything seems right, it's finally time for you to sign a rental agreement. You will probably have to submit a security deposit at time of reservation.

Know Who to Call

Don't forget to get the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. We recommend saving the contact's details in your cell phone and wallet.

Congrats on booking your rental! You're on the way to a fantastic vacation!

During your Stay

• Take pictures on your arrival. Record the condition of the rental unit right away. We also recommend promptly phoning the property manager with a report of any damage, along with your request for any needed fixes. If there is a disagreement about liability later, having the documented problems and communication attempts could be helpful.
• Ask questions. You might need instructions for a gas fireplace, Television set or spa tub. Call your home manager. They are there to help. A brief phone call prevents many head aches.
• Remember to respect your nearby neighbors. . Remember the golden rule and treat others the same way you'd like to be treated by visitors next to your residence.
• Ask a local. Residents are a terrific source of recommendations. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for wildlife?
• Enjoy your stay! Make certain to protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the home secured when you are away, exactly like you would at home.

Leaving Paradise

• Make sure you've packed all your personal belongings. Sweep every room in the house for left-behind items. Check bathrooms, the garage, kitchen cupboards, patios, the pool area, and anywhere else your personal property might "hide".
• Be sure to walk through the rental home one final time and check for property damage. If at all possible, do this walk-out assessment with the property owner present. If the property owner is not available, you'll want to take photos of the property to record its condition.
• How would you feel about your stay? Most rental management companies and rental websites make it easy for customers to offer reviews. If the property and/or property manager was excellent, they'll appreciate your compliments. If something was disagreeable and they did not correct it in a acceptable manner, or when the property was not as described, you'll want to make it a point in your review.

Learn from your Experience

Hold a debrief with your traveling companions. Did everybody have a great time? Hopefully this guide steered you to a great vacation home. If the rental home wasn't ideal, and you will better recognize how to improve your search for the next time.
