Notice of Insurance

Massachusetts law requires homeowners to maintain a minimum of $1M in liability insurance to cover a rental home. This coverage shall defend and indemnify the owner and any guests in the home for bodily injury and property damage arising from the short-term rental. Check with your insurance agent to be sure that you have adequate liability insurance and that there are no exclusions for short-term rental coverage. If your carrier does not provide the required $1M liability coverage, you might need to take out an umbrella policy to supplement your current policy or switch to a different provider. For more information, please visit: https://www.mass.gov/service-details/short-term-rental-insurance.

Termination of Listing

In the event that WeNeedaVacation receives complaints about your property listing's accuracy, or about your treatment of guests, we will investigate and give you every opportunity to present your side of the situation. But, after such investigation and presentation, if WeNeedaVacation in its sole judgment, believes that those complaints are not being fairly and adequately addressed by you, we reserve the right to remove your listing from the WeNeedaVacation website with no refund. Since our formation in 1997, we have had to do this less than once per year. We must demand accurate listings and fair treatment of guests who find your property through our website.

You understand that WeNeedaVacation may monitor your listing and internal correspondence for accuracy and integrity. In our sole discretion WeNeedaVacation, LLC reserves the right to terminate and/or refuse to publish any listing with or without cause. In the event that a listing is terminated without cause, you will receive a full refund for the current subscription plan. In the event that a listing is terminated for cause you will receive a pro rata refund for the time remaining on your listing. In the event that the listing is terminated for cause as set forth in the previous paragraph, the termination is without refund.
