- Reservation/Security Deposit will be deposited into a Reed Real Estate (herein known as Holder or We) company account. This deposit DOES apply to total amount due as a prepayment. It WILL NOT be refunded following your departure. Digital and/or original Signature constitutes authorization to charge the credit card on file for the deposit (30% of the base rental rate, $75 processing fee and optional travel insurance if requested) once the signed agreement is received. Please notify us if you would like to wait until the due date stated on your payment schedule. Signature also authorizes Holder to charge the credit card on file for the remaining balance on the designated date given by Holder. Prepayment dates vary per property. Total rent plus optional trip insurance (which can be paid with initial security deposit/prepayment) must be paid on or before balance due date. If the balance is not paid in full by said f inal balance prepayment date, either due to the credit card on file being invalid, declined or otherwise unaccepted, or other acceptable forms of payment are returned as non-payable, the reservation will be canceled, and any collected monies will be forfeited. It is the responsibility of the guest to notify us of any change, cancellation, or expiration to the credit card number on file. Should a personal check be returned for insufficient funds, a $35 fee will be added to your balance due, and you will be notified to overnight certified funds. Prepayments may be paid either by MasterCard, Visa, Discover or personal check. All parties agree that Holder may deposit all prepayments and deposits into an interest-bearing escrow/trust account and Holder will retain any interest earned on said monies. Pet Deposits collected on pet-friendly units and any mandatory security deposits will be returned by mail or credited back to the credit card on f ile within 14 business days from your departure provided there is no damage or additional cleaning to the unit. The Pet Fee is NOT refundable. Additional information regarding our pet policies can be found on the Reed Real Estate pet addendum. (2) Applicable State, County & City Lodging Tax, any additional departure fees, $75 nonrefundable processing fee, & the damage waiver, which varies per property, are added to the rent amount for each rental reservation. The mandatory damage waiver covers accidental damages up to $1000. We must be notified during your rental stay of any accidental damage to be covered by said damage waiver. If we are notified after departure by the housekeeper or incoming guest, the damage is NOT covered under the damage waiver. This damage waiver DOES NOT cover damages caused by renter’s negligence, either intentional or unintentional. The credit card on file will be charged for damages caused by negligence or any accidental damage that exceeds the $1000 limit. Upon departure, the house must be in acceptable order. All dishes must be CLEAN & put in proper place, groceries & all trash must be removed & put in proper receptacles by the street for pick up. All sheets must be left on beds (unmade) and towels left in bathroom for the housekeeper to do a linen count. If house is left in an excessively dirty condition, or garbage is not taken to the road for pick up, an extra cleaning fee will be charged to the credit card on file. Mid-week cleans are available but must be prearranged prior to check in. (3) Units may not be sub-leased without written consent of the property owner. Property must be always occupied by signer of this rental agreement. A valid form of identification for the assigned lessee must be submitted at time of booking to be kept on file. (4) Renters are responsible for any additional expenses incurred by Reed Real Estate & Construction, Inc. in the collection of rent, security deposits or damages caused by the renter, or any member of the renter’s party or guests, not covered under the damage waiver (see section 2). By renting this property you are assuming all risk and liability for all damage done to person, property, agents, employees, or visitors occasioned by the present or future condition of the premises both latent & manifest. Reed Real Estate & Construction is NOT the landlord and will NOT be responsible for accidents or injuries to guests or their visitors, or loss of money or valuables of any kind. (5) Check-In Time is from 3:00-5:00 PM, however some homes require 4:00 PM check-ins. Check-out is 10:00 AM. Early arrivals must meet at our office & NOT at the rental unit. Units with vehicles parked at them appear to be occupied & will delay the cleaning/inspection process, thus delaying your check in. If arriving after 5:00 PM or on Sunday, arrangements will be made for after-hours key/key code pick up. Keys/key codes will be released at 3:00 on the said arrival date. There is no guarantee that the property will be cleaned by said check-in time although every effort is made to ensure that it is. While standard check-in begins at 3 PM, there may be occasions where the housekeeper needs additional time. In these instances, the housekeeper may have until 5 PM to complete the cleaning of the unit. Delays may occur due to previous guest leaving the property in an excessively dirty condition or by violating the mandatory checkout time of 10:00 AM. Departure time will be strictly enforced. Housekeepers will enter the property at 10:00 AM the day of departure to prepare the property for the next incoming guest. There will be additional charges to the credit card on file if departure is after 10:00 AM. (Charges are dependent on rental rate). (6) Keys/key codes, a map to your rental unit, & additional information about the area will be given to you at the rental office upon check-in during office hours.
