Offices Serving North County and Central San Diego
ALL PROPERTIES RENTED BY NORTH COUNTY PROPERTY GROUP ARE UNDER THE FOLLOWING POLICIES, TERMS AND CONDITIONS BETWEEN YOU (THE "OCCUPANT") AND NORTH COUNTY PROPERTY GROUP. BY PROVIDING PAYMENT, YOU (“OCCUPANT”) ARE CONFIRMING THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTAND, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THESE COMPANY AND VACATION RENTAL POLICIES.
A Vacation Rental Agreement (if booking 30 days or less) or a Residential Lease Agreement (for bookings of more than 30 days), incorporating these terms and conditions as an Addendum, will be used to confirm and finalize all bookings and reservations. Once the requested reservation dates and fees are confirmed, the proper Agreement will be sent to the Occupant by our booking/leasing team for electronic signature. It is a company policy that all guests booking a stay with North County Property Group sign an agreement. Guests who do not agree to the terms and conditions of the Agreement will be asked to cancel their reservation.
All North County Property Group vacation rentals are NO SMOKING and NO PETS homes and units. Smoking within the home or bringing a pet into the property will result in an immediate charge for $500 to the credit card on file and may result in eviction without refund.
Reservations may be subject to cancellation until North County Property Group has received a signed Vacation Rental Agreement from Occupant along with verification of identity by providing a copy of your driver's license or passport, and processing of the full balance of the reservation, and all checks have cleared the bank. A valid credit card of the Occupant must also be on file with North County Property Group in case additional charges are incurred as a result of the Occupants stay in the property.
All rates, fees and taxes are subject to change without notice. Rental fees include linens and towels for the maximum occupancy of the unit. Rental fees do not include tax as required by the various cities within North County San Diego. The Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) rate is typically between 8‐11% of the rental rate, depending on the city within which you have made your reservation and will be automatically added to every reservation.
A cleaning and linens fee is required for all reservations. The cleaning fee ranges from $200 to $400 depending on the specific home rented for your dates of stay. The linen fee may appear as a transaction fee on your reservations charges. The linen fee ranges from $70 to $250 depending on the specific home rented for your dates. The cleaning fee covers normal clean up. The linen fee covers laundering of the linens and towels after your departure. If extra cleaning is required upon your departure, your security deposit or credit card will be charged. Daily cleaning service can be provided, charged per clean as an option to the Occupant, depending upon the unit and the service requested. All requests must be made in writing to vacationrentals@ncpropertygroup.com, at least five days prior to your arrival date. If you would like a full linen change or extra towels, please order them in writing at least two weeks in advance. Bath towels and full linens are $65.00 per bedroom and for just linens it is $45.00 per bedroom. Any damaged or missing linens or towels will result in a charge and deducted from your security deposit.
A refundable security deposit is required for all reservations. If you are renting multiple units, a security deposit is charged for each unit rented. The security deposit is used to cover any excessive clean up required or additional charges due to damage to the property. If no additional charges are not incurred and the home is left in good condition, the security deposit is refunded back to the Occupant in its entirety.
Occupant will be notified of any Excess Damage Costs in writing. Any Excess Damage Costs may be charged immediately to the Occupant's credit card. Occupant assumes full responsibility for any items found to be missing and any damage due to misuse, negligence or action on Occupant's or Occupant's visitor’s part, except in the case of normal wear‐and‐tear reported to North County Property Group within 12 hours of Check‐in.
