• Put the owner's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Upon check-in, note any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.

• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Double-check the property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at departure. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
