Charging for Electricity
A new one for me. I decided to fulfill a bucket list item and spend Jan and Feb in Ft. Myers, Fla. After one option was “rented” right after I selected it, I found my second choice was still available. Worried about losing out on it, I immediately booked and paid a down payment. What I missed, I learned, after receiving the short term lease agreement from the host, under the “Administrative Fee” was $917 for electrical usage. Is this common? I have stayed at many VRBO homes and have never been charged for electricity usage, before I even use it. It seems like a gray area in the VRBO rules.
