Hi Topcat, I don't blame OD completely but I do feel a review system would help - they are willing to take the advertisement - this was a serious situation. I drew their attention to what we had experienced and on checking just now they are still advertising this property. I realise most rental home...

Hi All,

Just to say I refunded security deposit back in Full as I did not have any photographic evidence. Needless to say I informed the renters i would not be taking further rentals from them.

thanks for any advice, much appreciated.

Property Hounds charge E55 for cleaning 2 bed apartment and they do a fantastic job and do windows and external area also. The going rate here around south costa blanca is up to E60 for 2 bed apartment. With regard to the website - it isn't my own and I agree it is a little confusing with the sterli...

Hi Nemo,

I see that - it is a little unusual compared to other forums in that regard but then people have properties in different countries and different countries have different laws regarding tenants.

I have now included the location of my property on the profile page, however I did not include the website as it is not my own - I use a property management company. If I am to be honest even though I have followed this forum over the years I haven't posted too much hence I am a little nervous of gi...

Have to agree - unless there is photographic evidence it is hard to prove a case and will refund her deposit. But I don't think I'd be having them back again as renters.

Thanks and am taking the advice on board.

My apartment is in Spain. My Property Management company normally deals with the bookings and security deposits and they have their own website and calender. This booking was a referral from a neighbour - one family were taking her apartment and another booking mine. The family in question sent me o...
