subject: Five Tips For Renting Out Your Cyprus Villas [print this page] The five simple steps to guide you through the process of renting out your holiday villa in Cyprus as accommodation while you are not using it. Study The Market - Before you rent out your holiday Cyprus villas the first step is to find out what you should be charging for rent by comparing your rental property to other similar properties in the area. If your rental price is too low you will not be making as much of a profit as you could from your Cyprus villas, but if it is too high you will struggle to find renters who will pay. Take a look in the local newspapers and online to see several different rental properties advertised. Determine how your property compares to them in size and location and use this information to come up with a fair rental price.
Prep Your Property - The next step in getting your Cyprus villas ready to rent is to prepare the home and make it suitable for visitors. This means cleaning the carpets, scrubbing the bathrooms, and mopping the floors until everything looks shiny, fresh and inviting. It is also a good idea to go through and remove all personal items of yours that might be damaged. Also dont forget to include the little items which make the stay special for your holiday renters, such as towels, soaps, extra linens, little bottles of shampoo, a map of the area, and a guide to local attractions.
Advertise Your Holiday Rental - Once you have prepared your Cyprus villas and are ready to rent them out it is time to advertise them to tourists as holiday accommodation. Advertising online is usually the most effective method, as your rental property will be seen by many people all over the world. There are many great websites online where you can create a listing for your holiday rental Cyprus villas. You can also advertise in newspapers and on bulletin boards, and of course if people are happy with your rental property they will spread your contact information to their friends and family via word of mouth.
Renting out the Villa - Once you have placed your holiday Cyprus villas online for rent, you will soon get an email or a phone call requesting to book your villa for accommodation. Make sure that you email back promptly and provide your guests with all of the information that they need. Once you have made the deal, ensure that your visitors have everything that they need at your property and are able to contact you if they have any questions or need help.
The Follow Up - Once you have had guests stay at your holiday Cyprus villa, follow up with an email asking them whether or not they enjoyed your stay. If they had a great time and they leave positive feedback, ask them if you can use their testimonial on your online listing to promote the property. If they had problems with their stay, listen to what they have to say so that you can correct the problem for your next guests.
