Damage Protection:
The $45 charge listed as a "Service fee" on your quote covers your purchase of $3,000 in "AllRisk" damage Protection. Although rare, accidental damage from guests does happen.
Traditionally, this was managed via a security deposit or vacation rental damage insurance
purchased by the guest. Both are cumbersome and often have big limitations in protection.
With "All-Risk" protection, all accidental damage from a guest is covered unless it's specifically
excluded such as, but not limited to, normal wear and tear, infestation, or prior damage.
Relax and Enjoy Stay: It's vacation time, so enjoy it with the peace of mind knowing that if an
accident happens and damage occurs, you are protected under Waivo!
