How to check that a DVC renter is legit

[TravelTime]

I rent using Facebook or MO been working pretty good. I wish tug had a rent board for more then 30days out. PuttIng up an add does not work quite as good.

What is MO?

Do you ask renters to send you a check and pay in full at the time of the reservation? I assume this is all non refundable. Is that correct?

Thanks so much for sharing info on how to rent points. This is super helpful!

After I have transferred the reservation into the renters name and provided the confirmation number I require full payment using PayPal. Yes everything is non refundable

Once I did a deposit of 30% and the balance 90 days before checkin. It’s all negotiable but mostly up to you as the owner.

Exactly! I give the renter the vacation plan # right away, then send the vacation plan when it comes to me, which is usually within hours. I tell them to pay via credit card, and then they are covered with their CC company. No one seems bothered by my process.

Exactly as I do it..AND it’s exactly how I have done it for 22 years!

Make sure you use a credit card when paying for your Disney vacation. I only accept credit card payments for obvious reasons.. it gives my renters the peace of mind they need to plunk down thousands of dollars for a BCV two bedroom reservation (the only villa size I rent).
