We offer two rental options.  A rate that includes most utilities with a utility share in place for all of the Maine properties. What this means is we provide a  utility cost share allowance at the beginning of your stay.  This rate is a daily rate (rate varies by property) times the number of days in your stay.  This allowance goes towards the cost of the electricity and heat utilities. If the utility cost share allowance is depleted prior to the end of the tenants stay the tenant is responsible for any heating and utility bills after the allowance is depleted.  Tenants are billed monthly for rent and details will be shown on utilities each month along with the credit balance  All back up documentation is provided.

The second options is a reduced monthly rent price  which does NOT include the electric, heat and internet utilities.  The tenant would be responsible for these utilities which remain in the owners name and are billed with the monthly rental invoice.  Back up documents are provided. 

All rents are paid by check and mailed to the owner. Payments received more than 7 days after the due date will be charged a 4% late fee. We accept cash, checks and money orders at no charge.   For credit card or ACH payments tenants may use the KeyCheck service - fees apply.
