Some of our properties do allow pets with non-refundable pet fees paid at the time of booking. If a pet fee is not indicated above under the charges on this agreement and is not paid, pets are considered "unauthorized" regardless of property pet policy. Any violation is a non-negotiable breach of agreement with grounds for expedited eviction in accordance with the NC Vacation Rental Act and payment of $750 non-refundable pet fee FINE. Please message use through Airbnb to let us know if you are bringing a pet so we can request a fee from you through Airbnb.

CONDITION OF PROPERTY: Agent makes every effort to provide accurate information about the rental property. Please remember that you are making an agreement with the Agent for individually owned property. Upon arrival, please notify us immediately after your arrival if you do not find the property clean so that we can remedy any matters, however, absolutely no refunds will be made. Agent will make every effort to satisfy the requirements of each Tenant. If we have not heard from you within one hour of check-in, we will assume that you are satisfied with the cleanliness of the home. If you check in after hours, please call before 10 am on the following morning to report cleanliness issues. Each Tenant has certain rights entitling them to a fit and habitable property as described in N.C.G.S. 42A-17(b).

SPECTRUM'S CLEAN HOME GURANTEE: If you check into one of our properties, and it has not been cleaned or maintained to reflect our high standards, please contact us immediately so that we can send a member of our housekeeping team to return for a touch up clean at no cost. If your clean issues are not rectified by 11:30am the day after your arrival, we will refund your cleaning fee. Please be advised that a refund will NOT be issued if Spectrum Properties is not notified of clean issues by 10:00AM after the day of your arrival and if we are not given the opportunity to address the issue(s) during your stay.

REPAIRS & SERVICE CALLS: Please notify Agent immediately if damages are noticed or a repair is in order. Repairs are prioritized, and some items may take longer to address. All efforts will be made to expedite needed repairs, but NO REFUNDS will be made for mechanical failures of air conditioning, elevator, appliances/electronics, or interruption/loss of utilities (including cable TV/Internet) or Homeowner Association advertised amenities such as, but not limited to, indoor/outdoor pools/spa, fitness center, or tennis courts. Authorized repairmen have the legal right to enter the property as required to accomplish needed repairs even if the service call was made prior to your arrival. There will be a $50.00 fee for providing entry to guests that lock themselves out of their vacation home during non-business hours.

Air Filters are changed on a monthly basis by our maintenance staff. These filters are changed on the second Tuesday of each month. We will notify you, IF this takes place during your stay, before our maintenance technician comes by to change out the filters. You are required to give them access to the property you are occupying. These filters must be changed on a regular basis to ensure the HVAC units are running properly and clean air is being filtered throughout. RIGHT OF ENTRY: You agree that Agent may enter the Premises during reasonable hours to inspect the Premises, to make such repairs, alterations, or improvements thereto as Agent may deem appropriate, or to show Premises to prospective purchases or tenants.

CONSTRUCTION: Spectrum Rental Properties cannot predict construction plans in the area and therefore, cannot be held responsible for any inconvenience. No refunds will be given in the event of nearby construction or on-site construction required by homeowner associations to preserve the integrity of the building or structure.

INSECTS AND OTHER CREATURES: Our homes are cleaned and disinfected to the highest degree, and we strive, to the extent possible, to keep our homes free of insects and other pests. That effort notwithstanding, Palmetto Bugs or Water Bugs are now an inescapable and naturally occurring phenomenon in our state and will occasionally appear inside of the homes. Although these insects are completely harmless, and while our cleaning crew removes them (if present) prior to each stay, unfortunately, these species cannot be exterminated. Additionally, ants occasionally and unpredictably migrate into homes in search of water. There is no cause for alarm; just let us know and we can address the situation. Vacuums are provided for your use during your stay if you find the presence of these insects uncomfortable. Although Spectrum and its owners are proactive in taking measures to avoid such intrusions, no system is perfect. If one of these unanticipated guests arrive during your stay, please notify Spectrum and we will take appropriate steps to rectify the situation. The appearance in the home of these insect and creatures has nothing to do with the home's "cleanliness" and, accordingly, neither Spectrum nor the owners may be held responsible-- nor any refunds given-- if they appear during your stay.

ARTICLES LEFT BEHIND: Spectrum will not be held responsible for items left behind. If items left behind are retrieved successfully, Spectrum will deliver item to a postal facility for packaging and shipment to renter, and renter will be charged for the entire amount of shipping plus an additional $50 handling fee.

POOLS, HOT TUBS, BOATS, GOLF CARTS, & ELEVATORS: If the Property is equipped with a community or private golf cart, boat, pool, hot tub, or elevator, Tenant hereby accepts and agrees to the following:

Tenant shall always ensure use in a safe manner and that juvenile use is supervised by an adult. Unsafe and/or unsupervised use by Tenant or Tenant's guests shall permit Agent to terminate IMMEDIATELY WITHOUT NOTICE Tenant's occupancy of the Property. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Agent (its officers, employees, agents, and equity holders) and the Owner of the Property harmless from and against any and all liabilities, claims and expenses for personal injury or property damage resulting from unsafe and/or unsupervised use by Tenant or Tenant's guests See paragraph's 21 and 22 of this agreement for disclaimer information. PLEASE NOTE: Refunds will NOT be given for any of these items that may be non-functioning. Elevators: Every effort is made to repair in a timely manner. Should your party misuse the elevator, you may be charged for a service call and may be without elevator service during your stay. DEPARTURE DUTIES: Tenant must leave property in an orderly condition as indicated in the following list: which includes all dishes washed and put away, all food removed from refrigerator, all trash removed from home, and outdoor grills cleaned. Failure to abide by this provision will result in extra cleaning charges charged to Tenant. Tenant must remove all linens from beds, and pile them in laundry room or bathroom. Please leave comforters, shams, and mattress pads on beds. LEAVE MATTRESS PADS, COMFORTERS, BLANKETS, AND DECORATIVE ACCESSORIES, SUCH AS SHAMS, ON THE BEDS.

LIMITATIONS OF REMEDIES, DAMAGES, AND INDEMNITY: If, at the time renter is to begin occupancy of the property, Spectrum or owner cannot provide the premises in a fit and habitable condition, or occupancy is unavailable for any reason, Spectrum will make all efforts to substitute a reasonably comparable property for occupancy. In the event Spectrum is unable to do so, renter's exclusive remedy shall be a refund to renter of all payments made. Renter expressly acknowledges that in no event shall Spectrum or owner be held liable for consequential or secondary damages, including but not limited to, any expenses incurred because of travel, costs of re-renting, etc. Renter agrees to release, to indemnify and to hold harmless the owner and Spectrum from and against any and all liability for injury to the person or the renter or to any member of his household resulting from any cause whatsoever, except only such a personal injury caused by the negligence or intentional act of the owner or Spectrum. This indemnification includes all costs and expenses, which may accrue to owner or Spectrum including reasonable attorney's fees.
