I am currently trying to as a renter, but just can't get the owners (3 different ones) to email or call me back.....what gives? I usually search the listings before planning a trip.

Well, you know, some people aren't online 24/7. Even some of my colleagues rarely check their email when off campus.:idontno:

Avoid any properties in which owners don't get back to you within a day or two. If they don't respond quickly to requests for information, will they respond quickly to requests for maintenance/problems/etc. And if they're not responding because their places are already booked, then it's common courtesy to say "thanks for your interest, but we're already booked at that time". If they don't show good manners when you ask for simple information, will they show good manners/business sense while you're actually doing business with them?

It could be, of course, that the owner is out of town and away from email for legitimate reasons, in which case the owner of the property knows they may lose some business. And when they return they can email back saying, "Thank you for your interest... I regret that I was unable to help you out because... I hope you found a place that meets your needs...etc."

You have lots of options for rentals along 30A right now. Whenever we've booked a place through VRBO anywhere (Maine, Italy, Hawaii, Sanibel), we've always booked places with people who responded quickly, answered our questions quickly, and made us feel like welcome guests from the first inquiry until we left their place.

I wish I had posted a request for rental info sooner. Obviously there is a wealth of hidden gems on this site, that I was not aware of.:clap:

I would definitely be more willing to rent from a Sowal.comer than an unknown.

I am supprised that more of you don't link to your listings from your profile here on SoWal.

Keep them coming, even if you list with a rental agency. I will look at all and share with friends who are also interested in the area but have no idea where to begin.

Here are mine -
VRBO 63813
VRBO 63811
VRBO 56733
VRBO 115171
VRBO 123245

I can't believe owners don't email back in a timely manner! I bought a BLACKBERRY so that I could get my inquiries and respond while someone is still looking on computer.

In fact, if you email me and I am not back to you within 24 hours (I would say that day but I go to bed by 11 pm and many are on until midnight!) you can have a FREE NIGHT!
Nice Nancy😀
