As of 2022, we have assembled a skilled international team that manages 40 high-end vacation homes across the western United States.

Especially for students, interns, and other young working professionals, they don't want the added hassle of hooking up utilities.

Hi there again,What are standard terms for snowbirds (canadians / international folks) in Florida who are renting for Jan-April?

It is only rated to 140 degrees, and a water heater that is set improperly can easily exceed that.The International Residential Code (IRC) doesn't have PVC pipe on their list of approved water distribution piping.

I've done well with my endeavor, ranking #7 internationally for CENTURY 21 for hiring, bringing on a grand total of 76 agents in my first year (woohoo!). 

We work a ton with out of state and international investors looking to grow their portfolios.

Over time I've come up with an internal barometer scale for tenants:Great tenants: pay rent early every time, virtually no service calls and great flexibility when there is a service call, keep the house neat and clean all the time, have great communication, keep me in the loop on anything that matters/might matter to me (neighborhood, things that appear to be deteriorating on the house, etc), stay more than 1 year, leave the place so nice turnover effort & cost is virtually nothing.Good tenants: pay rent on time, keep the house reasonably presentable, minimal service calls, stay for at least a year, turnover cost and time is not excessive - usually just cleaning, replacing a couple of blinds, etc.Satisfactory tenants: pay rent on time but sometimes needs prompting, house is sloppy and full of too much furniture but not damaging anything, occasional BS service calls, occasional stupid complaints, not ideal turnover but not ridiculous damages.

@Gail K.There are window bars that can be installed with an internal release mechanism.

Google searches have been primarily saying it's best to get your own agent (to represent your best interests) and my internal network is telling me to forget the buyer's agent and just go directly to the listing agent. 

maybe Tucker, Doraville (lots of delicious international food restaurants). , Decatur as well.
