You further consent to permit the Owner’s representatives to remove your personal belongings to a location of the Owner’s choice that may not be a secured area, where you can retrieve them.

An extra removal charge (determined by the number of items) will be deducted from your security deposit.

5. Home Damage Waiver: Home Damage Waiver: Each Guest will be offered an optional Damage Waiver that protects you against unintended damage done to the Property. This is not insurance, and the Damage Waiver does not apply to intentional damage done by the Guest or your guests, or excessive wear and tear due to parties, smoking, pets or otherwise, or additional cleaning charges due to stains or spills, or fines incurred by the police or HOA due to noise, excessive trash or parking, or damage over the purchased amounts of either $3,000 or $5,000.
