• Upon check-in, record any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the host. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.

• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Re-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a fantastic time? Most rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
