Property Caretaking Services

A critical aspect of rental properties is to make sure the home retains a high level of maintenance both for the benefit and safety of the homeowner and the vacationing public.  A Better View, Vacation Rental will work hand in hand with Property Caretakers to ensure the best possible care of your property.

What do caretakers do? Caretaking services vary widely in both pricing and services, so it is best to speak specifically with each caretaker to see the range of services they provide.  In general, for a monthly fee, the caretaker will visit your home regularly throughout the year to keep an eye out for your property against conditions which may adversely effect your property.  As part of that monthly fee, they generally handle the minor repairs and issues that arise at your property both throughout the rental period and off-season.  While A Better View, Vacation Rental staff will likewise keep an eye out on your property needs, A Better View Rental is more geared towards issues which effect a guest's stay (home cleanliness, supplies, oversight of amenities,  etc), while the caretaker is generally more skilled to handle mechanical and maintenance issues that arise.  For additional fees, the caretaker will often attend to more time intensive issues that may need attention.  Some caretakers provide additional services for lawn care, firewood, painting, trash removal, weeding, etc.
