Other than a sparkling clean residence that looks like the pictures, what do you expect when renting a vacation home? What amenities do you expect when you walk in the door?
I don’t want to disappoint any renters...

I have 2 rentals in TV - both Designer homes. I have been doing this for over 5 years and I can tell you what renters look for-
1. Golf Cart - Gas
2. Clean - has to be clean. We NEVER waive the cleaning fee on renters, so we have a pro come in and clean between them.
3. Fully Stocked Kitchen - like you have at home. NOT the bare necessities the Villages says you should have. Including a crock pot, coffee maker, and everything else you can think of.
4. A recliner - yes, you have to have one. Dudes like their recliners
5. Gas Grill - Another must have, people ask about this all the time.
6. Lots of towels and extra bed sheets
7. The Daily Sun
Those seem to be the hot buttons for Renters.
