PURE ROCKPORT F.A.Q Why do I need a property management company? Managing a vacation home requires time and effort to be successful; advertising, responding to inquiries, taking payments, collecting and filing hotel tax, handling guest emergencies, complaints, and requests, providing for housekeepers and maintenance. If you do not have the time, desire, or resources to handle these services, then you should hire a property management company. What services does Pure Rockport provide to Vacation Rental Owners? Pure Rockport manages all aspects of your vacation rental home. We take photos, advertise, promote, and market to potential guests. We manage the entire guest experience including the reservation process, taking payments, check in/out, 24/7 guest emergency line, housekeeping, linens, maintenance, home inspections, and guest follow up and reviews. We collect and file hotel taxes on your behalf, provide you with detailed owner statements, make monthly owner payments directly into your bank account, and provide you with year-end reports and 1099 rental income statements. For a full list of services we provide, please refer to our detailed property management description. What does Pure Rockport charge for this service? The fee for our full-service management is a 20% commission on the gross rental income. When comparing management companies, be sure to know what other fees you may be charged for such as credit card fees, cleaning fees, supply fees, etc. At Pure Rockport we charge the guest for most fees rather than passing them on to the owner. Who pays for the house cleaning? We bill the guest for housekeeping, so this does not come out of your rental income. When you or your personal guests stay at the house, we will also arrange for cleaning and bill you on your monthly statement.

Do I need to provide linens? Pure Rockport operates a commercial laundry service, and we provide all of the sheets, towels, bathmats, and kitchen towels for your property. Your home will be equipped with high quality, properly sanitized linens that your guests will appreciate. How do I get my home listed with Pure Rockport? Start by setting up a time to meet at your property. We walk the property with you to go over anything that you may need to do to ready the home for rentals. Then once we have all the paperwork filled out, we arrange for photos to be taken and get your home listed on our website. The whole process can take as little as a few days. We do not require any set up or activation fees, however, we do charge for professional photography. What is the commitment on your contract? Pure Rockport has a one-year contract; however, we believe that if you are not happy with the services we provide, then you are free to leave. We ask for a 30-day notice that you will be terminating the contract and to honor all reservations on the books. If you terminate your contract during the first year, there is a $250 early termination fee. After that there is no charge to end your contract. How often can I use my vacation home? Owners can use their homes whenever they like. We provide an owner’s portal that you can log into and block dates for personal use. You are required to block dates ahead of time as we will not cancel a reservation that is already in place. While we do not limit how often the owners can use the home, we do require that the home be a year-round rental. What type of homes will you accept in your rental program? Pure Rockport is looking for luxury waterfront homes with high-end amenities. We are seeking homes in prime neighborhoods with exquisite views and access to fishing. Homes must be fully furnished with thoughtful décor and nicely designed outdoor spaces. If you think your home may meet most of these requirements, we would love to speak with you about listing your luxury home.

What if I have a nice home, but it doesn’t meet Pure Rockport standards? Not a problem! Inquire about our sister company, Miss Kitty’s Fishing Getaways that also manages waterfront homes but with less strict guidelines. What am I required to have at my home? We require homes to be tastefully furnished and have kitchens fully equipped with high-end quality cookware, dishware, silverware, appliances, etc. You must have cable, satellite, or smart TV capabilities as well as internet service. We can provide you with a complete list of things to put in your rental home. We also require landscaping and outdoor areas with good quality patio furniture and an appropriately sized BBQ grill in excellent shape. How will Pure Rockport advertise my property? Pure Rockport will maintain a strong website in the Rockport market. All of our properties will have a dedicated page on this website. We utilize strategic search engine optimization (SEO) and have an aggressive pay-per-click ad campaign. We may also list your home on VRBO, Airbnb and other listing sites; however we feel strongly that it is important not to be dependent on 3rd party listing sites. We have an active social media campaign on Facebook and Instagram, and we have an ever-increasing database for our email marketing. We are also featured in a variety of print ads and magazines. These are just some of the things that we do to promote our properties. Our past guests are our best advertisers – we love referrals! How do guests make reservations? We have a state-of-the-art online booking system for 24/7 reservations. Our front desk staff is available 7 days a week for answering questions and taking reservations. We accept inquiries via phone, email, text, chat, and social media. Our software has an advanced lead generation system for tracking all inquiries. Pure Rockport accepts Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express. When do I get paid for reservations? Owners get paid once a month for all bookings that occurred in the previous month. Detailed owner statements are available online through a personal owner’s portal. We offer direct deposit into your checking or savings account.

What about hotel taxes? Pure Rockport collects and files all hotel and venue taxes for you. Who handles maintenance on our property? Pure Rockport has an in-house maintenance department and offers an inclusive monthly maintenance program to help maintain your home. Our policy is “zero-based work orders” meaning we strive to complete each work order the day it comes in. We work closely with local HVAC companies, electricians, plumbers, and other contractors for maintenance issues that need to be outsourced. We can also help you arrange and monitor remodeling and upgrades to your home. We have 24/7 on-call maintenance. What about lawn care? We can manage your lawn care needs or you can continue to use your regular lawn care service. What other services do I need to have in place? You will need trash service, monthly or quarterly pest control, a minimum of extended basic cable or satellite, wireless internet, pool service if applicable, tree/shrub trimming, etc. We can help you arrange for all these services. How do guests access my home? Pure Rockport is proud to offer keyless entry to eliminate keys to guests, increase security, and improve overall guest experience. Guests love the convenience of going straight to the property and not having to worry about losing a key or needing multiple keys. Guests are issued a code that is active only for the period of their reservation. Owners have codes that work at all times. Security and accountability are also increased by recording each property access by person, date, and time and can be viewed online by one of our staff. Is there a fee for the keyless entry service? Because this is a monitored system, there is an ongoing cost. Pure Rockport covers the expense of the locks and the homeowner is billed a $15/month service charge for this feature.

How are damages to my property handled? Pure Rockport offers a property protection program in which the guest pays a nonrefundable fee that covers them for up to $2000 worth of accidental damage to your home. With our property protection program, the guest is happy because they are protected for things that may accidentally get damaged during their stay, and the owner is happy because they can be assured that damaged items will get replaced without having to argue with the guest. A fully refundable guest security deposit will be used to cover damage that is considered intentional or malicious. As a side note, the property protection fee is not intended to replace items at the house that have broken due to normal wear and tear. We review each damage case very carefully to determine how each incident is best handled.



PURE ROCKPORT VACATION RENTAL MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT This agreement is entered into on (date) between Pure Rockport (agent) and (owner) The complete property address is The owner, who has a vested title in the property, appoints the agent to provide short term rental management services for the property listed above. Both parties agree to the following: RIGHT TO MANAGE Owner authorizes Agent to act as an exclusive agent to rent or lease the property to others as a vacation rental. Owner authorizes Agent to execute and enter into reservation agreements with guests and accept payments, deposits, and other fees. Owner authorizes Agent to make decisions concerning the day-to-day operation of the property as a vacation rental including but not limited to housekeeping, reservation policies, collection of rental proceeds, marketing, pricing, and promotion. Agent will make all reasonable efforts to keep the property rented as much as possible throughout the year using our expertise and utilizing various marketing strategies including specials, discounts, etc., when appropriate. Agent may use up to 2 nights per year as complimentary nights (off season use only) for the purpose of promotion, charitable donations, and support of local causes. Agent bears all cleaning charges for these nights. Owner income is the gross nightly rate rental income collected for the reservation which does not include taxes and other fees collected by the Agent. The Agent will collect a 20% commission on the owner income (18% for stays greater than 30 days). All other fees collected by the Agent which include, but are not limited to cleaning, processing, damage protection, cancellation fees, 3rd party listing fees, hotel taxes, etc. will be retained by the Agent. Initial here

RENTAL RATES AND LISTING SITES Rental rates for the property will be determined by Agent though we will accept owner input. Agent reserves the right to adjust rates to meet market demand. Rates may vary greatly due to season, length of stay, availability, holidays, days of the week, number of occupants, etc. Homes are subject to the specials and promotions offered by Agent. Our interest is to maximize your rental income, and appropriate pricing is essential for this. Please note that the rate you see on the website may not be the rate that we book your home at. The main listing for your property is on our website at www.purerockport.com. Agent may choose to market your home on other listing sites such as VRBO and Airbnb, etc. as we feel appropriate. Each site has its own way of doing things. There are fees associated with all listing sites. What this means is that you may see different rates on different sites for your home. Our goal is to get your home more exposure by using these sites but always strive for direct bookings which save you and the guest money. TERMS OF AGREEMENT AND TERMINATION PROCEDURE This agreement goes into effect on the date that both the Agent and the Owner have signed it and will automatically renew on January 1st each year to be effective for the next 12 months. By allowing your contract to renew on January 1st, you are agreeing to allow bookings through the following summer season. There may be amendments to this agreement periodically. Any amendments to the agreement will be emailed to the Owner. By electing to automatically renew the agreement, Owner agrees to accept any stated modifications to the agreement per the notification. If the Owner objects to any of the proposed modifications to this agreement, Owner should promptly notify the Agent in writing so that any issues can be resolved, or if they cannot be resolved, Owner may terminate the agreement according to our termination procedure. Termination procedure: Termination of this agreement before the first 12 months of service will result in an early termination fee of $250 to cover costs involved with the initial setup of the property in our system. After the initial 12 months, there is no termination fee. This agreement may be terminated with a 30 day notice by either party by submitting a written request. If there are no confirmed reservations on the books, then the agreement can terminate immediately after 30 days. If there are confirmed reservations on the books, Owner agrees to honor all confirmed reservations and pay Agent all commissions and other monies owed as set forth by this agreement for this period. If an instance arises where the owner does not honor a reservation, the owner is responsible for paying the Agent the associated lost commission and cancellation fees. Initial here

RESPONSIBILITIES OF AGENT Provide tasks and services associated with the use of Owner’s property as a short term vacation rental. Use our best effort to locate prospective guests for your property. Collect, process, and disburse funds associated with rentals. Owner will receive monthly statements with details of rental income collected and paid out.

Manage and coordinate guest access to the property. Provide 24/7 emergency call support for guests. Communicate with Owner any issues that fall outside the daily property management responsibilities that may affect rentals or require an owner authorization.

Ensure that the home is in full working order e.g. all utilities, cable, wifi turned on, all furnishings and inventory in place, and all mechanical systems in good working order. Provide basic maintenance on the home to keep it in good working condition and keep it looking nice such as routine pest control, a/c filter changes, pool service, lawn care, periodic tree and shrub trimming, etc. (we can arrange these things for you if you set it up with us). Provide repairs and/or replacement for items and required inventory as needed. Initial here

Maintain a positive balance in your owner account with us. If Owner income in any given month is less than $100, then that amount will be held in the Owner’s trust. Balances greater than $100 will be paid to Owner monthly with published statements. If an Owner account has a negative balance, Owner agrees to submit payment to Agent upon notice of a balance due. DAMAGES OR MISSING ITEMS Agent will check your property before and after each rental for obvious damage or missing items. If there is damage to the property, Agent will use professional judgment on whether the guest should be charged for the damage. Guests will not be charged for normal wear and tear. Agent will do our best to spot damaged or missing items at your property, but Agent shall not be held liable for any failure to make claims on any damages which were not readily apparent to us or our employees. Guests are required to purchase a property protection plan that covers the home for up to $2000 worth of accidental damage to the property as well as pay a refundable security deposit for other damages deemed intentional. OTHER CHARGES TO OWNERS Upfront Costs: Professional photography, initial cleaning Supplies: We bill the guest for supplies such as toilet paper, paper towels, hand soap, dish soap, etc. as part of the guest cleaning fee. Supplies that will be paid for by the owner include light bulbs, AC filters, batteries, parts needed for minor maintenance Homeowner or homeowner’s guest cleanings: All homeowners and their guests will be charged the standard cleaning fee after a stay at the property and before a paying guest arrives. Maintenance: Owner authorizes Agent to arrange for minor maintenance and repairs without first notifying Owner. Minor maintenance and repairs are those that cost up to $300. Agent offers a Maintenance Plan that covers routine maintenance and minor repairs. This is an optional service with a monthly charge based on the size of your house that covers a variety of maintenance issues. Please refer to the document at the end for details of this plan to see if this plan is right for you. Repairs that require a plumber, electrician, a/c expert etc. will be billed at whatever their charges are. If you request a specific company to handle these issues, then we will attempt to use them first. Initial here

Linen Program: Owner will automatically be enrolled in our Linen Program that provides high quality and professionally laundered sheets, towels, and bathmats for the rental. There is a fee for this service that is rolled into the cleaning fee. With this service, the homeowner does not need to supply these linens or the laundering of them. If duvets/duvet covers are used, Owner will purchase the duvet insert. Locks: Agent will install a keyless “smart” lock on each property that integrates with our software and provides secure, keyless, and monitored entry. There is no charge to the owner for the lock or installation, however, a monthly monitoring fee of $15/mos applies. Lawn Care and Pest Control: These services can be provided by Pure Rockport and will be billed to Owner on the monthly statements. MAJOR MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS (OVER $300) Agent will contact Owner for major maintenance items. If the issue is one that affects renters currently staying at the property, then the work is expected to be done immediately. Urgent issues that must be fixed immediately include heating or A/C repairs, plumbing issues such as toilets, showers, and hot water heaters, refrigerator repair, electrical issues, fishing lights, etc. High priority issues that may not need done same day, but should be taken care of promptly include problems with washer/dryers, cable, or satellite tv, internet service, etc. If Owner wishes for Agent to arrange for maintenance/repairs, we will use our judgment regarding these issues, and we will arrange for repairs that cost up to $300. We will pay these bills on your behalf and retain these funds from your reservation earnings or bill you if you do not have earnings. For any repairs/purchases that will run over $300, Owner will be contacted and Owner may be expected to pay these bills themselves. In the event of an emergency such as a gas leak, a break in a water line, etc. Owner authorizes Agent to do whatever is necessary to prevent further damage to the home or individuals. The Owner will be contacted as soon as possible in these events. A special note regarding fishing lights, piers, docks, pools, and hot tubs: Your home may have been chosen specifically because of one of these amenities. If your property offers fishing lights, piers, docks, pools, hot tubs etc., and we advertise as such, we expect you to keep these things in good working order, and you agree to have any needed repairs taken care of promptly. Initial here

CLEANINGS All homes will be cleaned by our cleaning crew prior to the first rental. This clean is charged at an hourly rate so charges are variable depending on the amount of cleaning/set up required. To keep your costs down, we are happy to let you know what we require before the home is ready to rent. Rarely, we find a home that does not need at least some cleaning or set up by our staff. All homes will be cleaned by our staff after homeowner / personal use and before guests arrive. You will be charged the set cleaning rate for your home. If you do not use all the bedrooms/bathrooms in your house, you can arrange for a partial clean, but this MUST be done prior to your departure and fully communicated in writing with the housekeeping supervisor. If you do not contact us, we will assume a full cleaning is needed. We will deduct this amount from your monthly earnings or bill you if you do not have earnings. All homes are required to have a deep cleaning at least once a year and as needed to take care of cleaning items not covered in routine cleanings such as cleaning and organizing cabinets and drawers, cleaning under all furniture, baseboards, ceiling fans, windowsills, outside window panes, carpet steam cleanings, etc. Owners can do these cleanings themselves or we will schedule them for you. LAWN CARE AND PEST CONTROL You may provide for your own lawn care, but if you don’t we will provide it for you and charge it to your account. Lawns must be mowed and trimmed regularly. Shrubs and trees (including palm trees) must be kept trimmed and maintained All homes are expected to be on a minimum of quarterly pest control service. Paying guests DO NOT like bugs and will complain. We work with a local pest control company and can provide you with good service at low rates, and we happily schedule your routine pest control around guest bookings. LIABILITY AND INSURANCE Owner agrees that Agent shall not be liable for any claim for loss or injury to any person or personal property located on the property that is the subject of this agreement. Owner shall maintain appropriate short term renter’s insurance hazard policy as well as liability insurance with a minimum of $100,000/$300,000 for the property with Agent named as additionally insured (this should not cost you extra).

PURE ROCKPORT MAINTENANCE PROGRAM Pure Rockport offers an in-house maintenance plan so that we can provide prompt reliable service to our owners and guests. There are two main goals of our maintenance program: To make sure certain basic upkeep and preventative measures are being taken care of on a routine basis To respond to service issues in a timely manner and resolve the issue quickly, efficiently, and cost-effectively. Routine maintenance/inspections can prevent serious issues and provide your guests with the security of a well-maintained home. The following routine and non-routine services are provided under your plan. This plan includes labor only (unless specified) and covers 3 minor maintenance visits per month that takes less than one hour of labor. Any labor more than 1 hour is billed at $50/hour (parts not included). Visits over the 3/month will be billed at the $50/hour labor fee. Monthly Routine services include but are not limited to: • Monthly check/change air conditioner filters • Changing light bulbs both inside and outside the house as needed • Repair/replace toilet tank flappers, toilet seats, leaky faucets and sinks • Check/fix minor dock issues like loose boards, troubleshooting lights, etc. • Door locks and hinges • Reset circuit breakers and GCFI’s • Bleach in AC drain line, check septic pump and bleach/Rid-X as needed • Inspect and clean BBQ grills • Clean top of fridge, high AC vents, high ceiling fans etc. • Clean lint from dryer vent and screen, clean lint from washer and flush if front load • Cutting off water in case of freezing temperatures, checking house and grounds after severe storms • Pre and post subcontractor diagnosis and check of work completed • Rehanging towel racks, curtains, mini blinds etc. • Adjustment of bi-fold doors, hanging new shower curtains and help with electronics (use of tv, DVD player, etc.)

PURE ROCKPORT LOCKS AND THERMOSTATS Pure Rockport is proud to offer “smart control” solutions for your home in the form of keyless entry and energy management. These tools allow us to eliminate keys to guests, increase security, reduce annual energy costs, and improve overall guest experience. The system implementation is straightforward and non-invasive. It involves installation of a cellular “gateway” in your property. This gateway enables us to remotely control the wireless thermostats and electronic locks. Pure Rockport will own, operate, and maintain the system and service for the duration of our management relationship to you. The system includes the following hardware: Cellular Home Gateway Optional thermostat Electronic lock (touch screen operation- wireless connectivity) at the main door. KEYLESS ENTRY The electronic lock eliminates the need for mechanical keys greatly increasing guest/homeowner security. Guests love the convenience of going straight to the property and not having to worry about losing a key or needing multiple keys. Guests are issued a PIN (personal identification number) that is active only for the period of their reservation. You will be issued a homeowner access code that will be active for each period you are at your property. Security and accountability are also increased by recording each property access by person, date, and time and can be viewed online by one of our staff. We will be able to control access by issuing codes that are good for a specific period (guest reservation period, contractor access for 4 hours) or for an unlimited period. We will be able to authorize-deny user access wirelessly within 60 seconds.

ENERGY MANAGEMENT The Smart Home system will also enable us to control your HVAC system remotely and will also allow us to limit the temperature range that guests may set, reducing your energy costs and equipment maintenance. For instance, we can program the thermostat so that the guest cannot lower the temperature below 65 or raise it above 78 however they can adjust the temperature freely within that range. The system will also automatically link with the guest reservation to set the home temperature prior to guest arrival (e.g. 75 degrees) and raise or lower the temperature (depending on the season) when your home is unoccupied. We will be able to view the temperature and control the system from any web enabled device and will receive temperature alerts if the temperature drops below a specific level or rises above a certain level. The system will also immediately notify us of any power outage at your home and will notify us when power is restored. Smart lock studies have shown yearly energy savings of at least 15% and often higher. INSTALLATION We will replace your existing lock (deadbolt or lever lock) and thermostat (optional) with an attractive, touch screen electronic lock and wireless thermostat. No modification to the door or thermostat wiring is required and we will store your existing lock and thermostat in a safe place. FEES There are no upfront fees involved. The cost to the homeowner for the lock is $15/month and each thermostat is $15/month. These fees are a fraction of the actual cost involved with purchasing and monitoring these items. We feel they are so important to our service that we cover most of the expense involved. In the event that you were to discontinue your property management agreement with Pure Rockport you will have the option of acquiring the thermostat and lock or we will remove the hardware and reinstall the thermostat and lock previously in use at a nominal charge of $50.00. The purchase price of the electronic lock and thermostat will be based on the number month/years the hardware has been in use at your property. We are confident that the combination of reduced energy costs and equipment maintenance, elimination of mechanical keys, improved guest experience, and the overall increase in property security will provide a solid return on investment. We also believe that as this technology is widely deployed in the vacation rental market that guests will come to expect this level of convenience and security just as they have experienced when checking into a hotel.
