Why Choose Great Locations
to Rent Your
Ocean Edge Condominium

We are the most successful and popular Ocean Edge rental program. For the past 18 years we have been welcoming guests to the resort and have developed the experience and expertise required to assure our homeowners of a profitable and worry-free season. Throughout this time we have earned not only an outstanding reputation for vacation rentals but have also gathered a large following of devoted renters. Year after year these loyal guests return to Ocean Edge because they know we will greet them like the old friends they are, make sure their rental is sparklingly clean and graciously take care of any problem that might arise while they are here.

We’ve worked hard to build this kind of loyalty from our guests because we know how important it is to provide our owners with a full rental season. We have consistently been able to provide our property owners with unmatched occupancy rates.

Our housekeeping department is also unmatched. We recruit, train and supervise our own staff so we can maintain the quality control of our cleaning. Sure, it would be far easier to use independent contractors, but we have seen the condition of the properties they clean. Guests staying on a resort property want a higher level of cleaning than is usually found in the average vacation rental. We constantly strive to meet their expectations.

Please contact us for a comprehensive rental evaluation of the Ocean Edge property you are considering. We can tell you the anticipated rental rate and how many weeks of rental to expect. Our rental staff will also be happy to make suggestions on ways to increase your rental desirability.

So if you can’t spend the summer enjoying your condominium, enroll it in our Ocean Edge rental program. At least you can enjoy opening those rental checks.

What kind of rental income can I expect from my Ocean Edge condo?

Vacation rentals have exploded in popularity in the past five years. Ocean Edge Resort rentals are in especially high demand since there is nothing else like in on Cape Cod. The 14 week summer rental season on Ocean Edge runs from early June to mid-September. While most rental properties on Cape Cod can only generate 6 to 8 weeks of rental, the indoor pool, tennis center and golf course lengthen the resort’s season considerably.

Price, climate control, décor and location are the biggest factors affecting rental popularity. Pretty, air conditioned homes with a fresh, summary décor which are located near the pools can easily achieve the full 14 week season, however most of our owners want at least some of the summer season for their own use!

Should I list my property with multiple Cape Cod Real Estate companies?

Renting with multiple companies is a sure fire way to guarantee that you will not get a full rental season. Doesn’t seem to make sense, does it? However, when you think of it as a matter of loyalty and commitment, it becomes clearer. My staff and I are totally responsible for insuring that our exclusive contract owners get a full season. We worry about those houses and work hard to fill them. Why not, those owners gave us a 100% commitment and we give the same back.

You may also diminish the desirability of your property in the eyes of potential renters by listing it with multiple agencies. Renter's comparison shop. When they see the same condo on three different web sites they assume you are having difficulty renting it. "What's wrong with it?", they wonder.

Discuss your needs and expectations with each rental company. Ask if they can give you the kind of rental season you need. We offer a guaranteed rental program for owners joining our company who want the assurance they will achieve a full rental season. It eliminates any risk and gives the owner priceless peace of mind.

You'll have your own special place on Cape Cod to relax and refresh. But what happens to that home when you are unable to use it? One of our owners laughingly told us that his Ocean Edge condominium turned into a cash machine when he was gone. During the times it would ordinarily be empty, he had it enrolled in our rental program and let it make money for him.

Ocean Edge is a tremendously popular vacation destination and rental demand is very high. Modern families no longer seek a rustic cottage by the shore. They want beautiful, well equipped vacation rentals that have all the comforts of home.

Because Ocean Edge Resort offers the unspoiled beauty of Cape Cod combined with superb recreational facilities, it is not surprising that our rental program is "sold out" every summer.

Most houses at Ocean Edge Resort average 9 - 11 weeks of occupancy per year. Some of our very popular condos are filled for 14 - 18 weeks.

The rental income and tax savings can make your second home very affordable. It is a perfect way to own your future retirement home while enjoying your Cape Cod vacation getaway.

Joining our rental program will provide you with easy, worry free rental income. It is our job to rent and care for your home. It's your job to open the envelope when your rent checks arrive!

Ocean Edge owners have a choice of three rental programs:

FOR HIGH INCOME AND WORRY FREE MANAGEMENT:
The Comprehensive Rental Management Program

This program is the Mercedes Benz of rental management and the backbone of our rental division. It provides you with maximum rental income and superb care for your home. Quite simple, we do it all. A member of our cleaning staff is assigned to your home for the season. She personally cleans your house and maintains detailed service records. The executive housekeeper also inspects your home on a weekly basis. We will coordinate with you to arrange for all repairs, routine maintenance, replacements and refurbishments. Our reservations staff will photograph your home and prepare a beautiful color view book.

This full season program is available from May to October. You may enroll for the entire season or any portion of it which suites your needs. The management fee for this program is 25% of the rental rate. Additional charges apply for maintenance and cleaning.

Because this program provides high annual income, comprehensive management and superior personal service, it is designed for the busy owner who wants to enjoy his home with a minimum of work, or for the investor owner who desires high occupancy and minimum involvement.

FOR ECONOMY AND FLEXIBILITY:
The Real Estate Program

This is the standard no frills program for owners who manage their own property, but who would like help obtaining rental reservations. It is an open agreement, allowing you to list with us and with any other real estate company simultaneously. You determine the weekly rate for your home. You are responsible for cleaning and maintenance. This program is available from mid-June through mid-September. Our management fee for this program is 15% of the rental rate.

For seasoned rental owners this program provides a painless way to fill the season. No more staying home all spring to answer the phone, driving down to show the property, or wasted time spent chasing deposits.

FOR PERFECT PEACE OF MIND:
The Guaranteed Rental Program

In this program you agree to provide us with a pre-determined block of at least four weeks of summer and we pay for these weeks in advance. Price is mutually determined in advance. A member of our cleaning staff is assigned to take beautiful care of your home and we will help coordinate any necessary repairs or maintenance. Management fees and cleaning charges are the same as for our 25% Comprehensive Rental Management Program. The guaranteed program is available only during July and August, but can be combined with either of our other two programs for owners who also desire spring and fall rentals.

We feel this program is an ideal way to get to know us. It is perfect for owners who have been less than satisfied with other rental companies.
