NOTICE TO ADVERTISERS - Membership Cancellation Policy

Due to the fact that the vast majority of the work involved in promoting properties on the Internet occurs in the first few weeks (creating the ad, adding photos, etc.) Golden City Rentals, Inc. is only able to offer a partial refund once your first listing is online. Sorry, but no refunds on second or subsequent listings.

Property owners are responsible for investigating and adhering to all local regulations including, but not limited to, permits, licenses, occupancy taxes, and safety compliance.

PROPERTY OFF THE MARKET

If you wish to remove your rental property from the market, we can temporarily inactivate the Golden City Rentals, Inc. listing and reactivate it at a future date during your paid term. Your Golden City Rentals, Inc. listing stays in force through the original term and the renewal date does not change (the renewal date will not be extended during the time that the property is off the market).

PROPERTY SOLD

If you sell your property, you can transfer your Golden City Rentals, Inc. listing to the new property owner for a one time $10 listing transfer fee (normally paid by the new property owner). NOTE: No refund will be given, however, existing and new members are encouraged to come to a fair division of fees amongst themselves.

SELLING A Golden City Rentals, Inc. LISTING

Warning to potential purchasers and sellers of Golden City Rentals, Inc. listings (we're talking about the sale of the listing, not the sale of the property - you can of course offer to sell your property): Since a property owner can create a new listing of their own at anytime, Golden City Rentals, Inc. does NOT endorse or approve of the sale or bartering of the Golden City Rentals, Inc. listing unless the property being advertised is also sold to the same party. Any listing which is advertised for sale or which we determine has been sold is subject to immediate cancellation without notice and without refund. Please do not offer to sell or purchase a Golden City Rentals, Inc. listing without transferring the property at the same time.

ONE PROPERTY in ONE LOCATION

Golden City Rentals, Inc. listings are designed to advertise ONE PROPERTY in ONE LOCATION.  Each listing may only relate to one specific property. The property in a listing may not be substituted by another property.

SPAMMING POLICY

Note: Golden City Rentals, Inc. does not participate in or tolerate the sending of Unsolicited Commercial Email (SPAM) - Golden City Rentals, Inc. reserves the right to cancel (without refund) any member that  mentions Golden City Rentals, Inc. or any of its associated websites, URLs, or any associated Golden City Rentals, Inc. email address in any SPAM e-mail message or Usenet posting. Golden City Rentals, Inc. is the sole judge in determining what constitutes SPAM.

RENTAL INQUIRIES

It is the goal of Golden City Rentals, Inc. to reduce the volume of SPAM delivered via the Rental Information and Availability Request (Inquiry) form. To that end, inquiries may be monitored and filtered by Golden City Rentals, Inc. prior to delivery to Golden City Rentals, Inc. members. Inquiries may be read by Golden City Rentals, Inc. staff members. Despite Golden City Rentals, Inc. filtering efforts, it is likely that some SPAM inquiries will be delivered anyway. It is also likely that some non-SPAM inquiries may not be delivered as a result of Golden City Rentals, Inc. filtering efforts.

Rental inquires are delivered via Internet email and are not to be considered private. Internet e-mail delivery is not 100% reliable and Golden City Rentals, Inc. cannot be held responsible for undelivered inquiries or for missed income as a result of undelivered inquiries. Golden City Rentals, Inc., at its own discretion, may supply to potential renters the direct e-mail address and or phone number of Golden City Rentals, Inc. advertisers for the purpose of making a rental inquiry.
