insurance offered by the Agent that would have compensated guests

property during your tenancy, up to value of home's security deposit.
TLC Fee does not cover negligence or willful and wanton conduct.
This TLC Fee and related taxes are non-refundable and are not covered

the TLC Fee Option. You are responsible for, and agree to pay all
charges for, any loss or damage to your vacation home or its contents,
normal wear and tear excepted, during your tenancy. All funds held
for security deposit will be held and disbursed according to the
North Carolina Tenant Security Deposit Act. After your occupancy,
the home is inspected to determine if any loss or damage, including
additional cleaning, has been suffered. Agent may deduct from security
deposit any long distance or per-call telephone charges and per-use
cable television charges. Please be sure to read our information
binder at the home. Agent shall apply, account for, or refund Guest's
security deposit within 45 days following the end of tenancy.

if the landlord transfers the property to another and your vacation
rental will end 180 days or less after recordation, your vacation
rental will be enforced. If the rental ends more than 180 days after
recordation, the rental may not be enforceable and all payments
will be refunded to you. Each guest will be notified of any transfer
and their rights will be explained at that time. If Owner's interest
in property is involuntarily transferred, the Owner is required
to refund to Guest all rent paid by guests within 60 days after
the transfer.

limit of 75 lbs each. No pets allowed on furniture or in pools or
hot tubs. Guest's breach of this provision shall be considered material,
and shall result in the termination of the Guest's tenancy. Proper
clean up after your pet is required to avoid deduction from security
deposit.

obligations imposed by the Vacation Rental Act on Guest with respect
to maintenance of the home, including but not limited to keeping

made by you. Should your home sustain a failure of a system
or amenity, including but not limited to water, septic, heat pump,
electrical, mechanical, pool, hot tub, whirlpool tub, or electronics,
the problem will be corrected as soon as humanly possible. Priorities
are given to water/sewer, electric/plumbing, and air conditioning/heating,

or repairman and landlord have the right of entry at any reasonable
time.

for conduct or operations of subdivisions and property associations
and cannot be held liable for any loss or liability in connection
with either.
