How Does BERIC Homestays and Suites Work?
The first step is to get in touch with one of our representatives – they will walk through our services to see if your rental unit is a good fit for our program. We offer two programs: Lease and Partner.
Lease Program. With the lease program, we sign a lease agreement like a typical tenant. We include an addendum to your lease which explains the terms and conditions for us leasing your property to our business leisure clients. That’s it! Sit back and relax because each month rental payments will be automatically deposited to your account and we will cover all of the minor maintenance and property management needed to keep your unit “rent ready” for our guest.
Partner Program. With the partner program, we sign a simple “Revenue Share Agreement.” This agreement explains the terms and conditions for us sharing the profit after all expenses are paid. We will do all of the work and give you 24hrs/7day view access to our shared property account so that you see all funds deposited. There’s zero management or time involvement from you. Every aspect of our service is handled entirely by our team.
