\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tWhat does EV Apartments do for Vacation Rental Owners? <\/dt>\n

We manage every aspect of keeping your vacation rental booked and ready for guests and owners to enjoy. Our goal is to enable you to make the most revenue from your rental without having to do any of the busy work involved with managing it. That means we do everything from taking photos, writing descriptions, and marketing it to potential guests as well as managing logistics like reservations, payments, check-in and check- out, housekeeping, light upkeep, and dispatching emergency maintenance. We can also manage handymen for regular maintenance, improvements, and emergencies. We make sure home owners can sleep well at night knowing their rental is being taken care of and generating the most revenue possible.\u00a0<\/p><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tWhat do you charge for this service? <\/dt>\n

EV Apartments provides full service management for a certain fee, and we may offer new getting started is easy and risk-free. We can activate homes that are existing vacation rentals usually within a couple days.\u00a0<\/p><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tHow easy is it to get started? <\/dt>\n

Activation includes shooting new photos, putting together detailed listings, setting pricing, activating advertising on the main internet channels and beginning to take reservations – all in as little as a few days! This can take longer given a home owner’s schedule, or if a home is in the process of being converted from a residence or long-term rental.\u00a0<\/p><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tCan you help me convert to a vacation rental? <\/dt>\n

Yes, we will help in any way we can. Whether it is helping you to refurbish the apartment, We can have an EV Apartments rep help you quickly and smoothly get through the process.\u00a0<\/p><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tWhat kind of contract do I need to sign? <\/dt>\n

Our contract is an open-book and we believe it should not have any onerous clauses. It is straight-forward.\u00a0<\/p><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t Do I have to commit to a certain amount of availability? <\/dt>\n

No, however we do require that all homes that wish to use EV Apartments are year-round rentals. There is no problem with an owner, friends or family using a rental for weeks or even months at a time, however if you plan to only make it available occasionally then your home probably is not right for our program. We also reserve the right to cancel a homeowner agreement if the home is predominantly unavailable for bookings.\u00a0<\/p><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tDoes my home need to be of a certain quality or size? <\/dt>\n

To some degree yes. While EV Apartments does not work only with luxury properties, we do focus on upper-end rentals in desirable locations. This could be a high-end studio apartment in a downtown metro area, or it could be a great home like most of us live in located in a vacation destination like Antalya. We will look at every home and let you know if we feel it will make a good rental. Contact us to see if your home qualifies.\u00a0<\/p><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tIs there anything I am required to have at my home?<\/dt>\n

Yes there is! Guests expect a fully-functioning home when they arrive complete with furniture, appliances, cookware, glasses, silverware, internet, TV, etc. as well as a standard supply of bed linens, bath and hand towels and typical consumables like light-bulbs and batteries. We will work with you to make sure that you have everything in place. Internet connections are required at every home – TV can be optional. Nicely decorated homes tend to command higher rentals and we always encourage owners to have a home that shows well. A good test of whether or not you need to have something in your rental is to put yourself in a guest\u2019s shoes. If you were staying somewhere for a week long period of time, what would you expect to have in that rental home that is what we aim to provide to guests for their stay.\u00a0<\/p><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tDo I need to have a traditional phone line\/land-line installed? <\/dt>\n

No, a landline is not necessary unless you wish to have one for your own personal stays. While we require wifi to be available, we do not require a landline. Virtually all guests come equipped with mobile phones and the expense of maintaining a landline just for guest use is not needed.\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tHow do you set pricing for my rental? <\/dt>\n

EV Apartments looks at nearby comparable rentals and hotels to gauge pricing in the market. We also look at availability calendars to see how well others are booked at the pricing they have posted. We also rely on our own internal data from other rentals. Pricing is very specific to the size of the home, the exact location, and to the quality of the finish-out. No pricing is every set perfectly the first time – the key is to monitor and adjust pricing up or down based on actual market demand. This is where EV Apartments excels – we monitor conversion rates of your rental at initial pricing and adjust up or down according to how well the rental is booking. It is an ongoing process that is always a top priority. The more money our owners make, the more we make – so we try and do everything we can to maximize the revenue.\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tHow do you advertise my rental and do I need to pay for this? <\/dt>\n

We advertise it anywhere we think guests are looking for rentals! We pay for Platinum level listings on the major HomeAway sites (Homeaway.com, VRBO, Vacationrentals.com), we list your property on roughly 14 other optional sites like Tripadvisor and Flipkey as well, we also list it on Airbnb.com and on Craigslist as well. We handle it all along with synchronizing your availability calendar. We believe no other property manager markets more than EV Apartments – after all if we do not book up your home we do not make any money on it either!\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tWhat if I already have listed my home on those sites?<\/dt>\n

Many owners have already created listings. We will work with you to migrate them over to our managed account and we will go through them to professional rewrite the listing if necessary, to add or improve the photos and to configure the listing to synchronize the pricing and calendar across all of the many sites we plan on listing your rental.\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tHow do guests pay you? <\/dt>\n

Travelers overwhelmingly prefer to pay with credit cards for transactions through booking portals rather than send cash – it is safer, easier, and more secure. We also charge it per credit card or bank transfer. We can also take cash but prefer to use credit cards. Credit card companies do charge for their service, we deduct a typical fee of 3.0% for Visa\/Mastercard from the gross rent to cover their fees.\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tHow do guests interact with EV Apartments? <\/dt>\n

We have several ways for guests to communicate with us. First is our website and email, second we have people ready to answer the phone around the clock.\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t Can guests book my property online? <\/dt>\n

Yes they can, although virtually all guests begin with an email or phone call we do allow them to view a property online, and to book it and pay for it online.\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tHow do you enable online bookings?<\/dt>\n

We use the software Tokeet \u2013 a very secure and reliable management solution for professional managers.\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tWhen do I get paid for reservations? <\/dt>\n

We currently pay owners once a month, you can expect to receive an owner statement and deposit to your bank account within first week of the following month as we get paid by the booking portals at the end of each month. This statement and deposit will cover all guests that check-out during that month. If you have a guest crossing over one month to the next, the payment for that reservation falls in the month they check-out.\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tWhat kind of reporting do I get on my unit? <\/dt>\n

Initially you will get a monthly statement from us that details out how much rental revenue you earned any any charges that you have incurred during the month (for example if you want it cleaned for your own stay, or if you had us install a new TV, etc.)\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tWhat about cleaning fees? <\/dt>\n

Guests pay us directly for cleaning fees, and we pay the cleaners. There is nothing you need to do to schedule them or pay for them. If you wish to have your home cleaned while you, a family member, or friend are using it, just let us know and we will clean it and bill you for it as part of your monthly statement.\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t

\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n <\/path><\/svg><\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tDo I need to do my own laundry? <\/dt>\n

No, our cleaning fees cover laundry service for linens with every clean. Our cleaners will either do it on-site if time permits or \/bring it to a laundry facility as a back-up.\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t <\/dl>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
