| |

APlus Resorts is not responsible for the refund of rental fees for any reason. |

NOTICE TO ADVERTISERS - Membership Cancellation Policy |
|
|
|
|
| |
APlus Resorts listings run on an annual basis. Due to the fact that the vast majority of the work involved in promoting vacation properties on the Internet occurs in the first few weeks (creating the ad, adding photos, etc.) APlus Resorts is only able to offer a partial refund once your first listing is online. Sorry, but no refunds on second or subsequent listings |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Property owners are responsible for investigating and adhering to all local regulations including, but not limited to, permits, licenses, occupancy taxes, and safety compliance. |
|
|
|
|
| |
PROPERTY OFF THE MARKET |
|
| |
|
|
| |
If you wish to remove your rental property from the market, we can temporarily inactivate the APlus Resorts listing and reactivate it at a future date during your paid annual term. Your APlus Resorts listing stays in force through the original term and the renewal date does not change (the renewal date will not be extended during the time that the property is off the market). |
|
| |
|
|
| |
PROPERTY SOLD |
|
|
|
|
| |
If you sell your property, you can transfer your APlus Resorts listing to the new property owner for a one time $10 listing transfer fee (normally paid by the new property owner). NOTE: No refund will be given, however, existing and new members are encouraged to come to a fair division of fees amongst themselves. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
SELLING A APlus Resorts LISTING |
|
|
|
|
| |
Warning to potential purchasers and sellers of APlus Resorts listings (we're talking about the sale of the listing, not the sale of the property - you can of course offer to sell your property): Since a property owner can create a new listing of their own at anytime, APlus Resorts does NOT endorse or approve of the sale or bartering of the APlus Resorts listing unless the property being advertised is also sold to the same party. Any listing which is advertised for sale or which we determine has been sold is subject to immediate cancellation without notice and without refund. Please do not offer to sell or purchase a APlus Resorts listing without transferring the property at the same time. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
ONE PROPERTY in ONE LOCATION |
|
|
|
|
| |
APlus Resorts listings are designed to advertise ONE PROPERTY in ONE LOCATION. Each listing may only relate to one specific property. The property in a listing may not be substituted by another property. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
SPAMMING POLICY |
|
|
|
|
| |
Note: APlus Resorts does not participate in or tolerate the sending of Unsolicited Commercial Email (SPAM) - APlus Resorts reserves the right to cancel (without refund) any member that mentions APlus Resorts or any of its associated websites, URLs, or any associated APlus Resorts email address in any SPAM e-mail message or Usenet posting. APlus Resorts is the sole judge in determining what constitutes SPAM. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
RENTAL INQUIRIES |
|
|
|
|
| |
It is the goal of APlus Resorts to reduce the volume of SPAM delivered via the Rental Information and Availability Request (Inquiry) form. To that end, inquiries may be monitored and filtered by APlus Resorts prior to delivery to APlus Resorts members. Inquiries may be read by APlus Resorts staff members. Despite APlus Resorts filtering efforts, it is likely that some SPAM inquiries will be delivered anyway. It is also likely that some non-SPAM inquiries may not be delivered as a result of APlus Resorts filtering efforts. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Rental inquires are delivered via Internet email and are not to be considered private. Internet e-mail delivery is not 100% reliable and APlus Resorts cannot be held responsible for undelivered inquiries or for missed income as a result of undelivered inquiries. APlus Resorts, at its own discretion, may supply to potential renters the direct e-mail address and or phone number of APlus Resorts advertisers for the purpose of making a rental inquiry. |
