Compensation and repair
for damages
Accidents happen, that is why we have security deposits and insurance.
-if anything happens to your home while under a renter’s care, big or small, we will make sure it is properly fixed and the renting party is the one who pays the bill. we properly document the damage and send it to the renting agency to make sure your home is returned to its prior condition.

All your house needs to be rented through us is what every house needs to be lived in comfortably; furniture, full kitchen, linens, the basic appliances, and amenities. A general rule of thumb is the more luxury items your house has the better it rents. We know what it takes for renters to be happy and we will happily provide you with a list.
There are two basic types of property management and we handle them differently depending on what package each owner chooses:
- Annual upkeep basic repair services.
This is the owner’s responsibility to schedule either on their own or through us. If we think something needs to be done we will let you know and are generally happy to schedule it for you. Depending on which package you are on fees will vary.
- Renter incurred damages / wear and tear.
It is no secret that things break in houses, especially rental houses. It is our job to make sure it gets replaced. When something gets broken, goes missing, or has seen too many winters we will let you know and facilitate its replacement. Depending on which package you are on fees will vary.
We do! We charge a flat monthly fee that includes damage checks and chemical balances between renters as well as monthly drains. We purchase the filters and chemicals for you and invoice you the same way we do all of your other basic house amenities. If your spa requires an emergency draining because of renter abuse we will pass the bill onto them.
Yes! You, your friends, and family can stay as much as you want. It is your investment and what is the point in spending all that money if you can’t use it? We are here to make you money and help keep your home in an enjoyable condition. The only thing we ask is that you adhere to the check in/out times and have the house professionally cleaned through us after your stay. We charge a flat discounted rate to clean the house. We want you and your loved ones to enjoy your home!
When we clean we restock the house as well. Depending on what rental package you have either you buy the goods or we buy them for you. Supplies need to be stored on-site in a locked room that we have access to. An example of some of the basics we need to store is toilet paper, paper towels, light bulbs, batteries, linens, soap, etc.
We will pay you by 10th business day of each month. This is because we have numerous houses to manage and in order for us to do it effectively we need to have them all on one account.
If your house is already on rental websites we will redo your listing with our professional touch and add it to our pages.

We had a lovely stay at this house. Breakfast looking out over the lake in the mornings was really special, as were the sunsets after a day out. Easy access to nearby trails and your pick of several different ski resorts. Host was very helpful and communicative.
