Re: Rent Your Vacation Home Quickly and Easily
Vacation Rent By Owners Everywhere,
If you are tired of trying to rent your vacation home, getting lost in the millions of vacation listing web sites, directories and classifieds, then you will want to know about my new system created just for vacation property owners.
Hi, I’m Anita and during my research to begin renting my second home I interviewed numerous vacation property owners. I discovered that most owners just use vacation listing sites such as www.vrbo.com and www.holiday-rentals.com. I also discovered they have listed themselves so much they aren’t sure exactly where they are listed at, how much money they spend or how effective the sites are.
I discovered that you need to use certain listing sites as well as other marketing tools to attract the type of guest you want staying in your second home
Studies indicate the recommended exposure for your property is seven different listing sites and eight contacts with your potential guest before you create enough trust to land a booking.
New listing sites are being launched every day. Ask yourself:
Do you know where to advertise your property?
Do you know if the website you are listed on is legit? Many websites steal your information from another listing and email you an invoice. Some claim that you signed up for a free trial and to receive your latest inquiries you’re charged an annual fee!
Sound familiar?
I Made A Decision…I Will Find a Better Way!
Don’t let your property sit empty costing you to lose thousands of dollars in lost revenue
Second home sales account for 40% of all homes purchased. Investment properties appear on the vacation rental market every year.
“It’s a whole new ballgame,” according to Quniby at PhoCusWright, which issued a report on U.S. vacationers who plan to skip hotels and rent a place to stay, instead.
More homeowners are putting their second homes up for rent this year to offset losses in incomes or on the stock market.
With more vacation owners on the market the competition is tough. Rents are dropping!
Owners lose income by not utilizing their rental business like a serious business. With rates dropping keeping tight reigns on your expenses is critical
Marketing your property on the Internet is necessary in today’s global economy. By showcasing your vacation property online, your property is advertised 24 hours a day 7 days a week. It is critical to continue your advertising 365 a year.

“It was a very healing time for our family.” |

We were able to reflect on our lives both heartbreaks and joys! It was a very healing time for our family. We look forward to our next vacation. To Anita and her family, thank you for providing us with such a wonderful experience!”

Page’s cabin had been rented for years with success. This year they were nervous and skeptical that they would not be able to rent this year at all. The economy was just too bad.

 |
“I love being a professional VRBO!” |

“It paid my mortgage plus.” |
| “When I lived in Dallas Texas I had a condo and was going on a temporary assignment for three months to another location. I put all of my valuables into one room and closed that off and rented the rest of the condo for the full time that I was gone. It paid my mortgage plus for the whole time that I was gone.
The ideas that I got from Anita at Simply Like Home were what helped me to be able to do that and I recommend that you call Anita she’ll be able to help you, even save your home from foreclosure. By being able to rent it out on a short term basis like this or if you have a summer home or a cottage or anything like that call Anita and she’s going to help you to rent your home out on a short term basis” Patsy Bellah, www.greattranscriptions.com |

“I will be a lifetime member of Simply Like Home!” |
| “I am impressed with the value of the service Simply Like Home provides. I was skeptical that I could get $975 a week. After six weeks on the Internet, I have $7,800 in rentals and an additional $2,100 for add-on items that they suggested I rent. A total of $9,900. I will be a lifetime member of Simply Like Home!”2009 update: I earned over $17,000 in rental income in just three months time. The industry is still going strong.
Denny Smith, Greenville, MI |

“She has patiently taught me everything I needed to know.” |
| “I love Anita, she has been amazing. We are not Internet savvy and could never have rented the cabin ourselves. She has helped me with the photos and patiently taught me everything I needed to know. I can now show my friends my web site and copies of my rental checks. Her advice and accessibility has been impeccable. Thank you.”
Ginny Hoyt, Deland, FL |

“Simply Like Home has more than paid for itself.” |
| “I have been renting my home for years and I thought I was doing well advertising on the Internet, newspaper and flyers. I joined Simply Like Home – what a difference! I discovered I could drop six paid for listing sites and they were not bringing me qualified leads. I also switched my custom site that I paid $800 for a programmer to design and saved $240 on hosting a year.
I changed the way I spent my marketing budget. Simply Like Home has more than paid for itself.” Bonnie Wheeler, Key West, FL |
 |
“Finally we took control with Simply Like Home and got it done!” |
| “Who would want to rent a cabin that is 5 minutes from two lakes but doesn’t have direct access? A lot more people than I ever thought. My family had talked about renting our cabin for years and that is as far as we got …talk.
Finally we took control with Simply Like Home and got it done! We actually have groups wanting to rent again next summer. I get excited thinking about it.” Debby Ellen, Pentwater, MI |

The Edwards family vacation home experienced dramatic growth when they began using the Internet to market which resulted in spending more and more time doing routine tasks like screening guests, sending contracts, email management, keys, collecting payments and deposits. financial systems were manual and mistakes were a huge hassle and becoming common place. They feared they would double book or forget to collect the payment in full.
The Edwards decided to join Simply Like Home to help control the paper work and to guide them as to what systems to use.

The owner can decide to spend additional monies on a quote basis.
We use Google Pin maps to showcase your recommendations of things to do while visiting your area, favorite places to eat and thing you enjoy doing. We help you keep your public profile and business on peoples minds so that when they are ready to book a vacation they know exactly where to go.
Booking Referal Program: When someone contacts us about staying in a property and the fit is not quite right we offer other properties within our membership to satisfy the guest. We also recruit potential guests by running a sweepstakes drawing to win a week at one of our members properties up to $3000.00. We collect information from each guest to see if we can’t fit them into one of our members properties.
Refer a booking to anyone of our Simply Like Home members and the owner will pay you a booking fee once the guest has stayed at their property of $25

We start by creating a web site unique to your property or properties. Each basic web site can have as many as 100 photos. Pictures help sell your property to potential rentals. We provide the tools to help you figure out what advertising works for your property and which sites do not work. You should not rely on one source for your advertising.
