While there is no shortage of Vacation Rental websites on the world wide web, there is a shortage of quality and user friendly sites. If you have advertised your vacation home rentals online you know what we’re talking about. As owners and operators of several luxury homes and condos we have received many free offers to list our properties on various vacation rental websites. Often we see why these sites are free to list…they are hard to navigate, not so pleasant to look at and the sites often try to be good at everything and not great at anything. When FurnishedHomes.com was being planned and developed we had the opportunity to branch out in many directions to become a “one-stop” shop for all travelers, all owners and offer services in many travel related fields. We found that many sites that advertise vacation rentals also place ads and links to car rentals, travel guides, and a host of other services. In our research we found that the websites became cluttered and difficult for the average user to navigate. As owners if we had trouble navigating the site it is probably difficult for owners and visitors to navigate. We found ourselves saying “how do you find a rental on this site and how can an owner list a property.” Instead of being a “One stop shop” or “Jack of all trades” we wanted to keep the site simple and focus on the two most important people. The most important person to a vacation rental website should be the travelers or visitors searching for furnished rentals. No visitors equals no reservations and ultimately reduced income. Secondly, the owners and managers of vacation properties need a simple, easy to monitor, and nice forum to advertise and present their portfolio of rentals.

FurnishedHomes.com has developed a site that allows visitors to search vacation rental listings with the Google interactive map and for property owners and managers to quickly add rentals, edit listings with ease, monitor page views, inquiries and book reservations directly with travelers. As owners we encourage property managers and owners to advertise on several vacation rental sites to maximize their exposure to travelers. We have experienced success with a few sites and they include VRBO.com (Vacation Rentals By Owner), VacationRentals.com and Vacationhomerentals.com. These sites have been around for some time and have some excellent tools to help advertise and manage vacation homes. Rates to list range anywhere from $99 to $349 annually for one property listing.

As FurnishedHomes.com website launches and moves forward; like any new website, we have to consider how to attract advertisers of properties and visitors. In addition, how will this site generate revenue and provide better service to differentiate itself from competition? It is our belief that the FurnishedHomes.com website is pleasant to view, functional, offers new technology and is offering a service that could command similar rates of other vacation rentals sites listed above.

In order to grow fast and build a great database of vacation properties worldwide we have decided to take the largest risk for owners out of the equation - MONEY. FurnishedHomes.com requires no money to list, no fees or commissions, no leads fees, no pay per click fees and no credit card registrations. We just want to be the site that you want to list all of your rentals with. Not just because we are FREE - but because we have a great website that generates inquiries for you and also happens to be FREE.

While some sites allow for a trial period of 60-90 days we want to be sure that owners and managers experience success with us. As owners we have taken advantage of trial listings and most of the time it is just too short of a period to get exposure and receive leads. Our FREE listings (no limit) will be free for 6 full months. To facilitate accelarated growth we will also offer unlimited listings. List 1 property or 1 thousand!
