Sunset Vacation Homes

We would like to be a part of any success you may have, and hope that the information provided on this page helps you to make the decision as to who should manage your vacation home that much easier.
It is a responsibility we would relish, and rise to meet. Sunset Vacation Homes already manage several homes in your area, and we offer a very personalized service which places the emphasis on owner satisfaction.
We take care of your property as you would do yourself, and we offer a whole range of services that cater both for your needs, and for those of your guests. We can provide references from our many satisfied owners, and we will also offer, where required, a guaranteed rental programme that will help you budget with some degree of certainty from the outset. Your home in Florida needs, and deserves, to be taken care of in a respectful, considerate, and professional manner.

These are our strengths, and we would welcome the opportunity to prove it.

Property Management Details

By being close to your property, we are able to keep a regular eye on your investment, and we are here to assist you or your guests whenever required.
We are never far away from your home, and are always obtainable by phone, fax or e-mail.

Our responsibilities to homeowners therefore include:

Maintenance: Carried out on your home promptly and discreetly.
Your lawns, plants and shrubs will be cared for on a weekly basis. Your pool will be constantly checked and its cleanliness and water quality monitored and efficiently controlled.
Your home will also be subjected to regular pest control treatments, regardless of whether the house is occupied or not.
Cleaning: One of our specialties.
We treat your home to a thorough clean at each changeover and pay great attention to detail. We have a team of cleaners at our disposal, all highly trained and fully conversant with all the requirements laid down by the Division of Hotels and Restaurants.
Each home is deep cleaned twice a year as we recognize the importance of this to our guests.
Administration: All bills for your home, as well as any due taxes, are paid promptly by us and invoiced to you on a monthly statement.
Our statements are made available on a secure server each month and each owner has their own unique password so that they can view the history of their account with us.
Any surplus funds are paid to you as accrued, either by check or directly into your bank account.
Rentals: We work with a small team of agents to ensure that your home achieves maximum rentability. We expect most homes to achieve a minimum of 20 weeks a year and probably more.
In some cases, we will offer guaranteed rental programs and this can be discussed when we have assessed the property and the location.
We will be pleased to try and fill any gaps if you obtain your own bookings, and we will try to help you achieve this by both designing and hosting your own individual website, in your own favorite colors and with your chosen name.
This has proved a popular option with many of our owners and as there is only a flat fee of $150 per site, and hosting is free for however long you remain with us, it is easy to see why.
We have also spent a great deal of money promoting our website and our company which has increased the number of bookings we take directly.
Our success in this very competitive market has been reflected in our growth and we are now 3 times the size we were 2 years ago.

Our Management services include the following and are charged as follows:

Home Management, monthly: $125 (3-4 bed) $150 (5-to 7-bed)
Pool Maintenance, monthly : $80
Lawn care, monthly : $75
Cleaning charges, per time : $65-75 (3-4 bed) $85 (5 bed) $100-125 (6/7 bed)
Pest control, monthly : $25

We currently make no charge for check-ins, bill payments, or tax payments, and we replace A/C filters, light bulbs, and keys at no extra charge.
We do not tie owners to long-term contracts either, it is after all, your home and you may terminate our management at any time without penalty, providing we receive 28 days notice.

We want to help you succeed with your home in Florida and gladly give advice as to how best this can be achieved.
Our reputation is such that we are confident you will be more than satisfied with the level of management we provide, and the personal service that comes with it.
We have a full management pack available which gives even more information than you see here, and we would be happy to supply it to you if you send an email to dan@efvh.com.

We wish both you, and your property, all the very best in the future.
