TEMPORARY HOUSING:
Will be provided while visiting the island to search for a property or while the assignees are waiting for the house.
SHORT TERM RENTALS: are considered being from one 3 days to 6 month period maximum in some islands. The price of the rent would be twice or more than the price of a long term rental because it includes all the utilities and housewares, furniture and decorations.
LONG TERM RENTALS : are for a period minimum of 6 months on and can be furnished or unfurnished. The price of the rent is less than a short term because all utilities are paid by lessee unless some can be included in the rent when we negotiate the terms of the contract.
