Crooked Goat Brewing
Beer LOVES a party and so do they! If you’ve never been to the Barlow it’s a local MUST with Crooked Goat as its star. Trivia and open mike nights, BINGO, DJ/Dance Parties, live music and a Blood Orange DIPA?! We’re in love. Another location is soon to open in Petaluma making for a convenient pit stop on your way into town. What makes it even more exciting is that the owners are part of our WC Lodging Family too! La salute della famiglia!!

IT’S TAX SEASON!
All of our owners are tax savvy but it never hurts to revisit the tax deduction differences between personal use of your vacation rental vs. rental use for purposes of income. This article is one that I found interesting as a vacation rental owner myself. Monday April 18, 2022 will be here before we know it!

SPRING MAINTENANCE
WC Lodging manages your home from a homeowner’s perspective, what would
WE want a manager to do for our home. With pride we ensure that fire extinguishers are full and readily available, damages are fixed, light bulbs are changed, appliances work and house is secure. HOWEVER, there are still tasks
we do not manage but will help facilitate if an owner requests. Owner responsibilities worth mentioning: roof/gutters, electrical hazards that aren’t visible (often found in older homes), septic pumping, well/water testing, HVAC maintenance (If you’re signed up for the Moore HVAC membership this one is taken care of!), Interior/Exterior paint, Yearly wash/stain of exterior wood structures such as decks and arbors. Call/Email us for vendor recommendations or help facilitating. SPRING-IT-ON CHECKLIST
ACCIDENTAL RENTAL DAMAGE INSURANCE (ARDI) VS. OWNER MAINTENANCE
EVERY WC Lodging guest is required to purchase an Accidental Rental Damage
insurance plan ($79) to provide coverage for accidental damages. The plan covers unintentional damage to the vacation rental for the duration of their stay. Most common uses of ARDI include carpet spills, lost or broken kitchenware, broken lamps and more. The plan does not include intentional property damage or any pet damage (including in a pet-friendly home); for intentional damages WC Lodging will handle the repair/replacement and charge the guest accordingly. What this means for you? Guest related incidents are never charged to you as the owner.
