Tips to Save Money on your Rental

• Find the tourism bureau where you want to travel. Many established tourism bureaus will offer you printed guides with special offers for accommodations, dining and attractions. Search for these guides and promotional books, because this allows vacation goers to take advantage of those attractions with a possibly considerable discounted.
• Want to stay away from the crowds of people and save money? Off-peak times offer up sizeable discounts.
• Are you a military veteran? Quite a few rental companies offer price cuts to vets and active-duty forces. Be sure to confirm with property management company to see if your vacationing group is eligible for a rate reduction.
• Some properties are particularly designed for particular groups of guests. Large event homes are best for weddings, wedding parties and corporate retreats. Some properties cater to beach bums. Other homes are positioned close to nightlife. You should prioritize your proximity to the adventures and sight-seeing opportunities you are most looking forward to.
• Consider purchasing trip insurance along with your leasing contract. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the basic vacation rental cost, provides vacationers reimbursement of their rental expenses for any missed as a consequence of medical emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or expenses, like an unforeseen hotel stay or extra gasoline. Trip insurance can be a bank account-saver if the unforseen happens (heaven forbid!).

Start Your Search Early

Charleston area vacation homes are reserved many months (and up to a year) in advance. To ensure the greatest selection of properties, we advise searching and booking your Charleston area rental home 6-12 months before your travel dates, whenever you can. Holiday reunions are a great time for family groups to plot their Summer family vacations..

Pick your Place and Travel Week

Consensus can often be difficult among close relatives, but as soon as this complicated part is complete everything will begin to drop in place.

Bedrooms and Bed Sizes Matter

Keep a list of attendees. How many beds and bedrooms will you be needing? Keep in mind that a lot of homes advertise maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in the living room space. It is important to figure out what is acceptable for the company. Specific descriptions of bedrooms and beds are commonly accessible on the internet. Otherwise, speak to the property owner before you reserve the home.

Decide on Your Budget

Most vacation rentals are presented with a price range. Determine the cost for your desired trip. It might be at the top end of the range. If many groups or loved ones are sharing the cost, ensure everyone understands their obligation and has agreed to a maximum they are prepared to chip in. Most of the time, one member of the group will be in charge of making the full reservation and getting each party's contribution.

Property Features

What property features is your family trying to find? Are you looking for a vacation property with outdoor kitchen? Would you like to be far from the crowds, or near civilization? Are items like beach chairs, grills, umbrellas, buggies or coolers at your disposal and included with your rental home rate? Make a list of prioritized "necessities and desires" from your party to help narrow your search to the most suitable home.

Special Circumstances

Grandma and Grandpa will thank you for not renting a stairs-only condominium on the Third floor. Be sure to remember and ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and special equipment requirements..

Take the Dog

Remember to include your companion! Animal friends are welcome at many vacation homes, but guidelines differ. Many restrictions could dismiss a prospective rental property. Examine your contract thoroughly! Fees may apply when animals are included.

Best places to Search

Once the location, travel dates and family members are decided, search multiple sources for the greatest vacation rental selection. In combination with Homeaway, VRBO and Tripadvisor, we advise searching Google for "Charleston area local rental homes" for local rental home management companies. Local rental home management companies pride themselves on a superior vacation experience.

Negotiate

When you have located the rentalhome of your dreams, make sure your trip dates are available.

Although not true for all rental homes, many rental owners and property managers will make a deal on rates. If the price isn't negotiable, the number of nights may be. Negotiating rates is most effective through the off-peak season when many rentals sit vacant.

Study the Entire Agreement

You really should know which services are included:

• Electric bills
• Internet
• Long Distance Phone Service
• Hot Tub Heating
• Pay Per View Movies
• Cleaning services and housekeeping
• Trash Pickup (and which day?)
• Maintenance policies
• Key exchange
• Parking Space

Get a total that includes taxes, pet and other additional fees.

Cancellations Happen

Cancellation policies are different with each property. Many rental property contracts include an option for trip insurance. Trip insurance, which ordinarily costs somewhere between 1% - 5% of the standard rental cost, provides travellers with reimbursement of their vacation costs (and subsequent vacation property costs) for any nights missed resulting from personal health-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as a unanticipated motel stay or extra gas.

Complete the Booking

After you feel you've found "the one", begin the booking process. You will probably be asked to submit a security deposit at time of booking.

Know Who to Call

Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. We recommend saving the contact's details in your cell phone and wallet.

Congrats! All that is left is making the most of your vacation!

During your Stay

• Ask questions. You could need instructions for a fireplace, Television set or jacuzzi. Contact your rental manager. They are there to help. A phone call can save several hours of difficulty.
• Be considerate of the local community. Local people are likely to be as friendly to you as you are respectful of them. Remember the golden rule and treat others the same way you'd like to be treated by vacationers next to your residence.
• Ask a local. Local people may point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great date night, or the best places for shopping?
• Don't forget to protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the vacation home secured while you are away, exactly like you would in your own home.

Check Out Time

• Ensure you've packed everything. Check drawers, bath cupboards and closets.
• Once everything is out, begin a walk-through of the rental to confirm no property damage occurred in the course of your remain. Whenever you can, do this walk-out assessment with the property owner present. If the property owner is not available, make certain to take photos of the property to record its condition.
