The 7 steps to home rentals in Bonaire:<\/h2>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Step 1: Rent determination<\/h3>\n

We are happy to visit the house, villa or apartment you want to rent out. This gives us a picture of the property and allows us to make a good proposal for a rental price<\/strong>. We are also happy to discuss with you the period you want to rent and the preconditions involved. We will discuss the options and explain all the pros and cons.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”2_3″ _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Step 2: Contract for house rental on Bonaire<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If you choose to rent out your apartment, villa or house through Harbourtown Real Estate, we will prepare an assignment of services (OTD). To do this, we then need the following information:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Deed of delivery (notary)<\/li>\n
  2. Copy Passport<\/li>\n
  3. Name-address-residence data and of course the bank account number.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    In the contract, we record that you commission us to work together on your apartment, villa or house.<\/p>\n

    [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/harbourtownbonaire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/For-rent-1.jpg” alt=”House rental on Bonaire” title_text=”Renting with a carefree feeling” admin_label=”Huis kopen Bonaire” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

    Step 3: Presentation<\/h3>\n

    With renting comes presentation on the website. We will come by to take beautiful pictures. We use these to present your house on the website. The photos will convey the best possible image. In addition to a presentation on our website<\/a>, we also promote the property on social media, such as Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

    Step 4: Viewings<\/h3>\n

    Prior to a viewing it is always best if a house is neat and tidy. Your rental agent at Harbourtown Real Estate will take into account as much as possible existing agreements when renting a house on Bonaire. For example, if we know that the house will be cleaned every Friday morning, we will course to schedule a viewing on Friday afternoon. We also try to merge multiple appointments as much as possible, so that the resident does not have multiple viewers in the house each week. Finally, we also always strive to provide brief feedback to you, the homeowner, after the viewing, if you appreciate it.<\/p>\n

    [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

    Step 5: Rental agreement for hire<\/h3>\n

    After we select the best tenant for your home, we will prepare a rental agreement to rent your home. The tenant must have paid the deposit and rent before they get the key. On the move-in date, we do a check-in with the tenant to determine the condition of the leased property. During this appointment, we will take photos of the entire house and its inventory if it is offered furnished. If necessary, also of the water and electric meters. After completion, the key is handed over and the tenant can move into the house.<\/p>\n

    [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”2_3″ _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

    Step 6: Renting a house on Bonaire with peace of mind<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    Perhaps the most important step for you as a landlord: the payment of rents<\/strong>. Once a tenant has paid the rent, this payment will be processed by our finance department. They will then transfer the rent payment to your bank account within two business days minus the brokerage fee for our services.<\/p>\n

    Of course, sometimes unexpected things come up that need to be carried out. A rooftile blown off the roof by a storm, for example. We usually make arrangements with home owners that we can decide up to $250 ourselves. Above that, we will always be in touch.<\/p>\n

    [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/harbourtownbonaire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Jibe-City-Emieck-de-Goede-1.jpg” alt=”House rental Bonaire” title_text=”Photo credit: Emieck de Goede” admin_label=”Huis kopen Bonaire” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||11px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

    Step 7: End of rental<\/h3>\n

    For long-term rentals, we make an appointment with the tenant one month before the end of the agreement for an interim inspection. After all, when renting out a house, you also want assurance that the house will be returned in good condition. At such an interim inspection, we will then check the house in advance and compare it with the photos from the start of the rental period. Furthermore, we indicate what the tenant still needs to be done before the lease ends and the key can be returned. Work that needs to be done, we check at the final inspection. Should anything remain outstanding, the cost of this will be deducted from the deposit. Fortunately, in most cases, the tenant simply gets the full deposit back.<\/p>\n
