Renting Vacation Home from Owners Saves Money
By renting a vacation home through the owner rather than a rental agency you can save money or upgrade to a better home for the same amount of money.
When traveling with family, we have found that the best places to stay are in homes or condos instead of hotels. There is more room to spread out, we have a kitchen and dining room and we always try to stay places with a screened in porch as well. Anybody who has ever traveled with extended family knows the importance of having room to spread out! We have learned that, while going through a rental program is sometimes easier as far as finding them on the internet or having a larger selection, renting a vacation home directly from the owners can save you money.
For instance, we recently took an annual family trip to Florida. The home that we stay in every year was taken, so we began to look for other homes in the area. What we ended up finding was a slightly larger home in a more convenient area for about 25% less than what we normally spent. It was for rent by the owner, who was extremely nice and helpful and even gave us tips on different restaurants and shops that we didn't know about.
You can find for rent by owner sites on the internet that allow owners to list their rental properties. This allows you to be able to compare different rental properties and also search for availability. As always, before committing to a rental property, you need to read their rental agreement carefully and find out about their cancellation policies. We were so happy with the for rent by owner that we had in Florida that we have already booked it for the next two years, locking us into the rental price even if it goes up. Now we are looking for owner rentals in California for a trip with friends. The money we have saved on renting can definitely be put to use on our vacation.
