 Top 5 Rental Weeks  of the Summer Begin on Saturday ... Ocean City, New Jersey

 

It's all been a preliminary for "the big summer dance" ... we're not talking basketball here.  The "5 top rental weeks of the summer here in Ocean City, New Jersey" kick off this Saturday ... from July 18 through August 22, the only game in town will be tourists, day-trippers, weekly rental tenants, and others enjoying the sun, fun, beach, boardwalk, biking, golfing, and so much more.  That's why Ocean City, New Jersey is recognized as "America's Greatest Family Resort."  It's the place to be.

 

So as one of about 600+ real estate agents in Ocean City, I'm preparing myself for the action.  Of course, the number one factor for me is "check-ins and check-outs ... changeover Saturday."  That's a full day for most rental agents.  You always have troubles ... from keys, to rental locations issues, to late arrivals, to late check-outs, and just about anything else that you can think of.  During the week, you also tend to receive a variety of walk-in visitors asking all kinds of questions.  Your skill and ranking is determined by how much of this you can answer successfully.  You also get points for good  answers that appear correct, but really aren't.

 

Summer isn't my favorite time of year in Ocean City, New Jersey ... but it is the best time for so many visitors who make this their favorite destination point (at least one of maybe two vacations that they take all year).  So it is important to play a positive role in their vacation experience.

 

So be on the lookout as you travel to South Jersey in general, and Ocean City in particular, during the next five weeks.  This is a time for traffic issues in and out of town along with a lot more people in and around our area.  My theory is to never leave the island from Friday afternoon until Monday morning.  Be prepared.             Dap
