Rentcottage.com has been assisting Ontario cottage owners since 1995, and our team is made of native Canadians that have a passion for welcoming visitors to the beauty of Ontario. Dave Craig has owned and managed Rentcottage.com since 2012, and prior to that, he had a very successful 32 career as an underwriting and sales professional in the international Life, Accident and Health insurance/reinsurance industry. He purchased his first waterfront family cottage back in 1994 and then purchased and managed more than a dozen waterfront rental cottages in the Bruce Peninsula area over several decades. Dave is a very experienced waterfront property owner and is passionate about helping locals and visitors find their dream vacation cottages. Often, we encounter property owners that have been renting their cottage on their own or people who are just diving into the world of income-generating property rentals. Our team makes it easy for any property owner at any experience level. We offer any and every service to provide the easiest and most profitable renting experience, including: Meeting with you at your property to assess the home and provide an estimate for income potentialRecommending any changes that we believe would improve your home’s marketabilityProfessionally photographing your cottage to be featured in our online cottage catalogDeveloping a property for your webpage to give potential renters any information they may needWorking with you to create house rules and an inventory list to ensure your renter has everything they need during their stayExecuting booking agreements with renters on your behalfCommunicating with you regularly to let you know about marketing plans and reports and feedback from rentersIf you are advertising your Ontario cottage rentals on your own, it may feel difficult and expensive to try to get the attention of vacationers. That’s why rentcottage.com handles all the marketing to attract your perfect renters.

Owning a rental property is a great way to supplement your passive income and create a comfortable nest egg or earn some extra money on the side. Not only will you gain the cash flow from the rental of your property itself, but you can use this income to pay off your mortgage or eventually sell it for more than you purchased it for. There are also a number of tax benefits that you may be able to take advantage of. Virtually all expenses you will incur with your rental property are tax-deductible against your income. Owning a rental property also comes with the potential to make government-subsidized capital improvements, refinance your property without triggering income tax or capital gains tax, and of course, you can use the property yourself when it’s not being rented! If you are interested in moving forward with our property management for Ontario cottage rentals, please contact us to get in touch with one of our Marketing Service Representatives. We will visit you at your property, carry out an inspection, and send you a Property Visit Report that outlines our recommendations for improvements and rental rates to charge. We also like to arrange follow-up meetings with our owners to demonstrate our screening process and answer any other questions you may have. We are happy to meet with you at any time and can provide references if you desire. We can’t wait to work with you on the exciting journey of property management!
