Default Re: Village Rental Service

You do have to sign a contract with them and if you come down to use your house yourself, they charge you the 20% commission that they would otherwise receive if they had rented it during the time you would be here. Also, they won't take all houses into their management program. My neighbors (two of them) both had their homes in the property management program and when their contracts were up they were told that the villages would no longer be using their kinds of homes for rentals. Now, take to mind, these are very nice homes but not big ones and are not on the "new side" (across 466) and I think that is why they took them out of their program so they could "lure" them to the new side. JMO as to why they did that.
