		<description>Hacienda is active over here as well, I can pay the tax through the management company and I will.  It&#039;s all the other costs that I want to avoid, as well as the requirement that I fire my long time maid and use theirs.  If I rent short term, less than 6 months, then I am required to use their services but if I rent long term I&#039;m not.  So, I can&#039;t take any vacation rentals it has to be 6 months or a year.  We do allow pets and that may make a difference for some.  I should check that Cancun board, which one is it?  Do you have a link?</description>

		<description>Glad you came up with a possible solution without having to sell. I keep renting out my entire house as an option too, especially since my job is ending in 6 weeks and I do not know if there will be any income after that. It&#039;s not what I would want to do, but it&#039;s an option, and it doesn&#039;t have to be forever. Good luck, I think it sounds like a very fair price. There is someone on the Cancun board looking for a place, and they want to bring their dog - St Bernard, I believe. You might want to check out the post and respond if you think it might work.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m glad you headed to the beach, sounds like you are getting some things sorted out.  I know you had issues with renting your place with the rental agent for the condo but a long term rental you manage would be much easier since you would be in control.

Quiet marketing is the way to go I think.  You&#039;ll probably get a better tenant and not have to filter through so many &quot;frogs.&quot;  

Here in Mazatlan Hacienda is watching all the usual websites and is citing rental owners for not having working fm3&#039;s and paying taxes, (including a big short term rental tax)  another reason to stay under the radar if you can.  The crackdown is said to be because the hotels are screaming about losing rentals and saying it isnt fair if people don&#039;t have to pay the very high hotel tax.  Hopefully this isn&#039;t the first you&#039;ve heard of this but possibly your area isn&#039;t tracking so much.

Anyway glad you are getting a soak in the sea and an air conditioned room at night.  That sleep is what keeps me sane, for sure.</description>

		<description>wow, i&#039;d be interested in a short term,3 day weekend rental... until you get that sorted out.  You can even post it on my chatobard about Cozumel, 
http://s1.zetaboards.com/Cozumel_4_You/index/, and see if you get any takers for the short term until it rents.</description>
