Every fall, our team gathers to host our annual Homeowner Forums for our vacation rental homeowners. Our presentation and conversation focuses on Cape and Islands vacation rental best practices. We share ideas for how they can provide the perfect stay for their guests and discuss the amenities that today’s vacationers are looking for.
Throughout the year, we spend hours each day supporting our homeowners with marketing and managing advice, and we greatly value this role. Our job is to help people have awesome vacations in really comfortable homes.
The vacation rental industry has experienced some profound changes in the past several years. We would like to explain how renting a vacation home through our website can save you money as well as more easily find the perfect fit for your family.
1. We do not charge a booking fee. When you rent a home on our site, you pay the rent directly to the homeowner, and we do not charge you a service fee. Learn more, save money

2. We support the communication between the homeowner and the vacationer to be sure that the house is a great fit for everyone. No one knows a rental home better than the homeowner. We refer to this communication as a mutual interview, and an important step for rental success.

About Becky Fischer: I have worked for WeNeedaVacation.com since 2003. Currently my position entails providing photography, video, and consultation services to vacation rental homeowners, and I have photographed over 700 homes on the Cape and Islands. My husband and three children moved to Brewster in 2006. I grew up outside of Boston, spent summer vacations on Nantucket, and was married in Orleans. My favorite activities on the Cape are walking on the CCRT, deep breaths at the beach, visiting great coffee shops, and working with my community to support the schools and local events.
