Covid clause for Seasonal rental agreement?? What are you using?

[Richard Lovering]

Hello BP and fellow STR friends!

We closed on a VT condo that's part of a ski mountain resort. I have a seasonal renter lined up for December through mid April. The main concern from the renter is Covid19. Specifically, what if travel is prohibited across state lines and they are unable to utilize the condo? What if the ski MT closes (it did earlier this year, before the end of the season)? 

How are you all handling this in your rental agreement? I appreciate any feedback! 

Cheers,

Rick

I have just been telling them I will refund them 100%. I put it in a email so that have documentation.

It would be unfair for them to pay in advance and then a Covid issue prevents them from coming.

I try and be fair with anyone renting from me.
