Atlantic East Provides Full and Careful Service for Owners

Steamboat

Don’t forget, when you list your home for rent with Atlantic East, we will handle all the collection, filing and remitting of the short-term rental tax to the state of Massachusetts on your behalf. Once you have registered your home and provided us with a copy of your registration certificate number, you do not need to worry further about the excise tax on your rental home unless you are booking rentals on your own. Also, please remember to post a copy of the rental certificate somewhere obvious in your home as required by state law. If you have any questions about the process, Erikka Perkins, our Rental Manager is a great resource (Erikka@NantucketRealEstate.com).

Atlantic East makes it a policy to check every home prior to each tenant’s stay, to ensure that the home is ready for their arrival, and after every departure to make sure the home has been left in good condition and is ready for the next tenants.

Having advocates on island can be extremely valuable for homeowners when things don’t go as planned. Maybe you’ve double booked your home, or a cleaner didn’t show up as scheduled or your air conditioning fails during the hottest day of the summer. These are all examples of crises that our agents have handled. Atlantic East’s agents have an average of 30+ years in the real estate market and have spent that time developing relationships with vendors and service people we can contact on your behalf when something goes wrong. A seamless rental transaction is always our goal, but there’s much preparation that goes on behind the scenes to make that happen.
