The devil is in the details!
Or maybe the devil is in the options list, but get it right now and our Orlando villa will be stunning, miss options off and the details will always bug me when i’m the house - it will just be like any other rental house, we really want this to be something extra special.
We have just spent an extra $ 1500 (taking us over $ 97,000 on options without even starting on the furniture!) on some more ‘details’ to get the house right from the build, maybe details we don’t need to do to get rentals when we are not there , but details in our eyes that will make the house right.
We have added built in speakers to the lanai, so we can enjoy music by the pool, and wiring and speakers for a surround system in the family living area.
Doesn’t sound like much for the money, but every house we have stayed in before has a surround sound system but all the speakers are at the front of the room, and wires all over the place leading to them. As for music on the lanai - nothing, we have had portable players.
Our house will have the wires all nicely hidden and integrated, the speakers in the right place for the right surround effect, and it should all be very easy to use and child friendly (no trailing wires!).
I doubt it will make an ounce of a difference to how well the house rents when we are not there, but it will make a difference to how we enjoy the house, and hopefully the details we are putting into the house will make our guests stay even more enjoyable and memorable.
The devil is in the details after all, or thats what we keep telling the accountant!
