We rent out our house when we are not here on ****.
Never had any problems and after 8 years still have 5 star rating.
Only ever had minor issues with renters.
We use them because they hold the money, so renters no they cannot be conned.

When coming for vacation, I used Down Home Properties. If there is a question or issue, it is addressed by Down Home Properties right away. One day, the battery in the smoke alarm needed replacing -- as you know it chirps until the battery is changed. They sent someone right away to check the smoke alarm and change the batteries.

Also, the place was always spotless upon arrival.

****/AIRBNB charge both owner and renter fees. I don't believe (could be wrong) that they verify ownership. Rent from a villager is a 1 time fee to the owner (can't tell from post if you are looking to rent, or to rent out your house). They do verify you are the owner. I had plenty of traffic from them. Highly recommended!

Rentals should be a month minimum not weekend ever and all potential renters have to be thoroughly vetted.

As a neighbor to an Airbnb one can understand your dislike of a hotel next door. However the question was as a short term renter what is the best agency to lease from. I believe Airbnb is an excellent choice. Both the owner and renter are vetted. Identity such as a passport is required to join for either side. Recommendations for both parties is highly visible. Payment can be made with credit card and even pay pal given added protection if a problem exists. Many rentals have 100% payback if cancellation occurs up to 24 hrs in advanced. Airbnb also has standard extensive amenity checklist identifying what is available in the rental unit. They do have this down to a science.

Thank you so much: I always try to make my posts clear, but you're spot on. I was ambiguous. To clarify: I will be renting a place in TV this summer, oops, that's still not clear. I am going to use one of those sites to procure a place to stay for a few weeks in July. Ooh, that verb "rent" is pesky. It has two nearly opposite meanings.

So you are going to be a tenant, not a landlord?
