Unit Permit License - Classified as a Hotel Property:

The Division of Hotels and Restaurants are in charged of inspecting your unit and approve it for short term rental purposes. Any individual or company renting accommodations for 180 days or less shall be required to register with the necessary state and county departments for unit rental intentions.

Escrow Account and Minimum Deposits:

An escrow account is an operational, non-interest baring account required to be maintained at all times with the Property Management Company. The minimum balance required is $1,500.00 per unit. This is a client escrow, and by Florida law, has to be maintained in a credit balance. This fund will only be used to cover the expenses of your rental unit and not for any other purpose.

Unit Rental Management and Accounting Support:

The owner of each unit will receive monthly accounting statements and income and expense statements, regarding to their unit in accordance with the Property Management Agreement expenditures (service charges, management fees and any miscellaneous charges). Statements are sent at year-end to provide you and your accountant with an accurate record of your operating expense. All statements will be provided by BVR-Management, LLC. DBA: Bella Vida Resort.

Resort Tax Collection and Payment Responsibility:

Osceola County Resort Tax is currently 13% (consists of the Tourist Development Tax 6% and State Sales Tax 7%). This tax is charged on each rental unit and is paid by the guests. Once we collect these taxes, by law, we submit them to the appropriate agencies on a monthly basis. It is the owner responsibility to declare any rental income gained on owner bookings and to pay the relevant sales-tourist tax.

Unit Owner Usage:

We strongly encourage all owners to use their unit, for themselves, for family and friends. This philosophy makes Bella Vida Resort unique, embodying the joy of ownership and the pride of letting friends and business associates use your second home. However, we recommend this during low season if possible. Keep in mind that units are subject to availability.

Resort Amenities:

All guests are welcome to enjoy all the amenities at Bella Vida Resort. Clubhouse facilities are open between 9 am till 10 pm 7 days a week.

Applicable Rental Rates and Set Up:

In order to remain competitive in this growing market, we are continuously checking our competition both regionally and nationally. By setting attractive rates appropriately, allows us to offer each guests with excellent rental rates. Competitive rates may differ depending on the type of the property you purchased. For example, rates for a 3-bedroom townhome unit will vary from a 4-bedroom townhome unit.

Property Projections of Rates and Occupancy:

No property management company is able to guarantee or predict unit rental occupancy. The economy, the weather, world conditions and other reasons will affect the occupancy of the resort. How often and what time of the year you use your property will also be a determined factor. Rates and occupancy differ according to season. “High Season” (winter and summer) is when we achieve the highest occupancy. Meanwhile, during “Low Season” (spring and fall) we offer specials and discounts in order to remain competitive with all other rental properties in the area.

Owner Bookings Reservations:

As a property owner you should play an active role in the marketing of your property! We will gladly assist you with marketing ideas to improve your ability to gain valuable and profitable bookings from your unit. Marketing your property should not depend solely on the management company. It is your business and you must get involved. Remember, together, we can achieve more. As we do our part of marketing your unit, so should you.

Unit Furnishing:

For your unit to be placed in the rental program, it is necessary that the furnishings and house wares meet specific standards, quality and quantity. Adherence to these standards helps ensure that your rental property will meet your guest’s expectations. To assist you in meeting these requirements, we have a standard furniture and house wares package list available.
