Default Re: What makes a good rental?

Well, I'll tell you what I'll be looking for in a rental. I'm moving to The Villages in August '08, will be renting for two to four months while I take my time shopping for a home to purchase. What I would like in my rental (in priority order): Golf cart; computer w/hi-speed internet access; at least one larger screen (minimum 32") tv w/cable and attached dvd player; cd player; bicycle; possibly a grill. I like quality linens (100% cotton of at least 400 thread count), but am prepared to bring my own linens.

While this is probably greedy, (according to the rental ads I've read), I think the rental prices for September and October should be the same as the rates for June/July/August. After all, it is still quite hot in Florida, and it's still technically hurricane season. (I'm sure I would feel differently if I was an owner wanting to rent out my home.)

I hope this helps!
