Standard for receiving payment
I have a potential guest that would like to book the weekends next fall for all football home games. When it comes to receiving payment how should I approach this? Is it standard practice to ask for full payment, half of payment upfront then other half a month before they arrive, a deposit then they pay every month until 30 days before they arrive? Should I also put the payment schedule into the rental agreement? Any assistance would be great. Haven’t dealt with this before usually I go through Airbnb but this guest came across my property thru Instagram and doesn’t want to deal with the Airbnb fees, which I can understand.
