Windsor hills question

[faindrops27]

I have a question.


Ok, I sent my final payment to a owner at windsor hills. August 16th. I knew she recieved the payment, yet she did not immediatly get back to me. So, I wrote her, asking her did she recieve it. She said yes, and that she would be getting back to me in a few weeks, with instructions etc. It is almost a month now, and I have recieved no emails from her whatsoever. I checked my bank, and the first check I sent her has cleared. The second one, for the security deposit, has not yet. What should, I do. Should I contact her. Or just wait. We do not arrive until october 17th, but I would think she should have at least written me by now. Is this how it always goes?Is this typical? I dont know, maybe I am just over anxious . What do any of you, who have rented from owners think? TIA everyone.

I've rented a few houses/condos in my travels and usually the owner will not contact you until just a few weeks before you leave, especially if there is an entry lock box. Most owners put statements in the rental contract saying such. I will also be staying at Windsor Hills in January and the owner has stated "a few weeks prior to our arrival she will contact me with details and the lockbox code." This has also happened on all other occasions with other rental houses (even outside the US).

I hope you enjoy your trip!

You could email the owner and ask her when she anticipates sending you the information. They may be planning on sending you the information 2 weeks prior to arrival but you could ask if she could send it sooner. Hope you have a great time!
