My Goodness The Bottom Feeders Are Out!

I just got a VRBO inquiry for my Gulf Front Condo:

"I saw your listing #2882677 on VRBO. We are looking for a quick get-a-way vacation. I am willing to pay 70$ a night. Whats the best you can do?"


Um..... That won't even pay the cleaning company :roll:


I swear every inquiry since the press hit Pensacola Beach has been like that. Thanks BP :angry:

You can stress over it or use this:

"Thank you for your inquiry, however our minimum price is listed on the website. If that amount is still too expensive then unfortunately this rental is not in your price range."

I used to use that exact response with inquiries, they either go away or give in.

My favorite phone call was last week...."Don't you have a seller that might want someone to stay in their property for a week, in case they might want to buy it?"

Trust me, I would love to give them the full RO response but I am a professional

Me being me, I'd have to reply "I'll let you borrow my tent.".

I'll offer you $80/nt. And, will be the bidding puppet for you!! Crazy touron listening to the media! ARGH - I wish we could all be firm in our rents, but I know some can't right now.

I was willing and did negotiate with the last guy but he wanted our Gulf Front condo for Super 8 price (not that there's anything wrong with that ).

No biggy... on to the next one.
