Owning a vacation property and renting it out yourself can be very challenging to organize. You’ll be taking multiple inquiries from different vacationers, often for the same week. This one’s name is Mark Daniels and that one’s name is Daniel Marks, how will you keep track of who wanted which week? Or, how about this one: "Oh no! I booked the same week to two different people!" Then there’s the paperwork involved, did you send out the rental rules for Mark or for Dan? Then the payments start coming in. Who paid? Who is due to pay? And who is due for a deposit refund? Then (yes, there’s more) there’s the property itself, did I service the air conditioner last time I was there or was it two-times ago? How about supplies? Was I out of dishwasher detergent or dish soap? Or was it trash bags I needed to buy?

There’s no reason to get overwhelmed. Organizing your rental property business does not have to be a big headache. In fact, if you use The Vacation Rental Organizer to it’s fullest, it can run as smoothly as a well-oiled machine. But it is imperative that you get yourself organized right from day one.

5.0 out of 5 stars This Book Got Me On Track!, May 17, 2006

By	C. Duncan (Texas Gulf Coast) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

First I bought "How to Rent Vacation Properties By Owner". This gave me the confidence to self-manage our own beach house. The rental organizer was just what I needed to keep track of the various stages of the life of a rental period from inquiry to deposit return. The only thing I have added is an item under check list for "changed availability calendar". This book goes everywhere with me.

5.0 out of 5 stars I have used this for two years, February 3, 2006

By	Maria - See all my reviews

I have used this organizer for two years. I like the way everything is spelled out in this organizer. There is a place to keep track of my inventory in my home, an owner networking area, and a place to keep track of all the people I have used to work on my property, from cleaning staff to chimney sweeps. I use the notes area for myself.

This sure beats all the little pieces of paper I used to use.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must-have for anyone renting "by owner", January 15, 2007

By	Melanie Minor (Clifton, NJ USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This organizer, along with it's companion book "How to Rent Vacation Properties By Owner" are indispensible. I used to rent my vacation home through an agency. Last year they got me 2 rentals for the entire winter season for my ski home! Plus they took almost 30% for commissions! Thanks to these 2 books I'm doing the renting myself, and I couldn't be happier! I've had every weekend booked so far this season. And I've already earned enough to cover 80% of my expenses for my home for the entire year. My home pays for itself thanks to Christine's books, and yours can too, with a little effort! Don't waste any more money on an agency - do it yourself with these ingenious books.
