Virtual Rental Assistant

The Virtual Rental Assistant is a service to help homeowners rent their own Cape & Island homes more effectively. Homeowners who oversee their own rentals have great satisfaction, feel a greater sense of control, and save considerable realtor fees.

If you are new to renting your home and find the prospect daunting, this program will show you that you CAN do it yourself. We will help you create a web page that presents your home in its best light. If you need help in pricing your home, we will advise you. We will give you pointers about the business management of renting your property, including information about leases, deposits, and handling vacationer inquiries. (Hear what current clients say.)
