Tips for Preparing a Vacation Home Rental Agreement
I have encountered many vacation home owners who rent without a written contract. They do so at their own risk. Although the majority of vacation renters are very good, and go out of there way to keep your property in order, it just takes one bad renter incident or one misunderstanding that can really spell trouble.
For example, I had an experience where 12 people showed up to rent an island rental home that only specified an occupancy limit of 6 in the advertising and contract. A dozen people in a smaller place can put a lot of wear and tear on the property, not to mention utility use. If there had not been an occupancy limit in the contract, it would have been more difficult to enforce, and ask the additional people to find another place. Another reason to have an occupancy limit is to restrict large parties in the vacation home. You many not want renters to hold parties of fifty people in your 4-6 capacity person home for weddings, reunions, etc.
