• Take a copy of the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
• To make sure that damages aren't attributed to your visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during arrival. E-mail the property manager immediately to report your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.

• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• Upon check-out, complete a walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a great time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
