How do I prepare my home for Masters guests?
Please click here for a Masters Checklist. This will show you the Elite expectation for minimum number of linens, towels, cleanliness, etc.
We partner with Augusta Gift Baskets and can provide a welcome basket filled with local Augusta items to greet your guests upon their arrival. Reach out to them below and let them know Elite sent you!
What do I need to do to prepare my home for listing?
Before you start the process, make a detailed list of the rooms in your home, sizes of rooms, bathroom information, number of TV sets, how many people can be seated for a meal, special features and amenities, etc. You’ll need high-resolution digital photos, under 4MB each, of each room/area of your home, as well as front and back exterior home shots, ready to upload. Having all the information and material at your fingertips makes the listing process easier.
We have a photography partnership with Ellie from The Pin Up Photographer. She is able to provide reviews for home staging, unlimited professional photos and a video to help get your home rented. Below is her contact to get booked, let her know Elite sent you!
How should I price my home?
We do not take a percentage of the rental price. Our client pays you. We do not price houses for homeowners but recommend looking at other rental websites to see what a home similar in size, amenities, and location to yours rents for. The pricing can be flexible, and we can always make adjustments if you decide to go up or down on your asking rental rate.
How do I know my house is listed?
Once you have completed either the Google form or printed copy and sent in all pictures and submitted payment, Elite will email you confirmation that the house is in our inventory.
Is it ok to list with more than one rental agency?
Nothing prevents you from listing with more than one agency. However, if you rent your home through another agency, we ask that you let us know immediately so we can mark your home as rented.
What about housekeeping?
Elite charges the clients for daily maid service, but all homeowners are required to pay the return clean at the end of the guest stay. The return clean price ranges from $200+ based on the size of your home. The housekeeping division at Elite is dedicated to providing top notch service to clients during their stay.
When do I have to be out of my home? When can I return?
We ask that you exit the home by 10AM on the first day your client arrives and can come back at 4PM on the day your client leaves.
Will I sign a contract?
Yes, contracts are sent out once the pricing has been agreed upon by both parties. We are not responsible for any damages that may happen during that week, and we have the client sign a contract taking responsibility for any damages incurred during their stay.
What happens next?
Anna Mutimer – Director of Housing will be in contact when a client is interested in your home. Please make sure to let us know your best method of contact on your initial paperwork. Katlyn Lillis is our Elite Ambassador who will be in charge of walking through your home the week before Masters, collecting keys, trash schedule, etc.
