Home Ownership Validation Required
Please note that we validate property ownership on every single listing. Before attempting to list a vacation rental listng, be sure that you can provide proof of ownership. We will require that owners provide us proof of ownership before allowing the rental listing to go live. To get a head start, feel free to email, fax or mail a copy of your tax or utility bill to to the contact information below to PO Box 55, Somers Point, NJ 08244; Fax to 609-939-3131; or email us.
External URL's - Youtube links ONLY
Shore Summer Rentals has a dedicated area in our listings to place up to 3 external Youtube links that pertain to your property you created on our website. Links to any other external sites is strictly PROHIBITED. If we see links to external sites anywhere on your rental listing, it will be removed and you will be notified and warned once. If it is placed on the listing again, your listing will be removed from our website without refund. Contact us to list your vacation rental now!
Email Address in Body of Rental Listing Prohibited
Listings that contain email addresses are prime targets for email collecting spiders that look for email addresses for mailing lists that they sell to spammers. This is how SPAM is sent. If email addresses are present in our listings, we will get spidered by these email collectors which will slow down the site, lower the listing views and inquires, and cause property owners to be spammed. If we see email addresses anywhere on your rental listing, it will be removed and you will be notified and warned once. If it is placed on the listing again, your listing will be removed from our website without refund.
Each Rental Listing is for ONE Property in ONE Location.
One rental listing advertising multiple homes are prohibited. Shore Summer Rentals listings are designed to advertise ONE PROPERTY in ONE LOCATION. You may NOT list more than one property per listing. If this is observed, you will be warned to remove the additional property advertisement, photos, etc. If you do not remove the information, ShoreSummerRentals.com has the right to deactivate your listing with no refund.
Closest Appropriate Region.
Your listing must be placed in the actual city your home is located.
Accurate Property Information
Your listing must reflect accurate information about the property. Photos must be up to date and less than 5 years old.
Plagiarizing Listings Prohibited
Please do not copy information or photos from another listing.
Review and Approval of Rental Listings
All listings must be reviewed by Shore Summer Rentals to ensure that they adhere to the guidelines specified in each section above. When building your listing, please double-check every field to ensure they don't include incorrect information, the characters < or >, email addresses, phone numbers or websites. These items will cause your listing to be rejected now or possibly deleted without refund. Shore Summer Rentals reserves the right to alter or permanently remove any listing that violates our guidelines or we feel could compromise the potential renter and/or our site's integrity without warning or notice.
Absolutely. We are here to help! Please contact us and we will be happy to assist you.
Of course, we are here to help! Contact us for help in creating or modifying your ad. To edit your listing on your own, simply login to your account and click on "Edit". View Listing Instructions here.
Absolutely! The Listing Title is very important. You have 3 seconds to grab the viewers attention so make it catchy and attention grabbing. We also reccommend changing it every so often to keep it fresh.
PS - You do not have to enter the number of bedrooms, baths or how many people your rental sleeps in the Listing Title. Our system automatically adds that for you. Use those characters to help your rental listing stand out with attractive, descriptive text.
Once a potential renter finds your vacation rental property, they will complete a simple inquiry form and the information will be sent to your chosen email account(s). You will also receive a text message (optional) to alert you that someone emailed you about renting your home. The quicker owners respond, the more rentals will be secured. Additionally, your telephone number will be available for people who prefer to speak with a live person.
Once your vacation rental property is in our database and published on the website, you can monitor the visits to your vacation rental property page. Email inquiries and phone calls from potential property renters are stored in your account for easy reference. We provide you with a real-time page counter that keeps track of all your hits. To view the page counter, just click on your vacation rental property details and look at the counter located at the bottom of the page.
Although we highly recommend displaying the address of your rental property, you can choose to hide it when editing your listing. It is more likely for a renter to be interested (and less suspicious of a scam) if they know the location. Most renters will skip properties that do not display addresses. We do require the address for our records and to verify property ownership.
You do! We provide you with a secure web-based administration tool which allows you to update the details of your vacation rental property such as availability, rates, description, title, amenities, photographs, videos, rental policies and terms and much more. Please keep your rental listing up to date.
Yes. Shore Summer Rentals rental listings are transferable in the event the property was sold. We can transfer the rental listing to the new owner's account with the permission of the original owner of the home. The new owner must advertise the same property. There is a $50.00 transfer fee. Contact us for details. If you wish to cancel your service due to a sale or transfer, the cancellation policy above will apply. No pro-rated refunds will be offered to terminate your listing for any reason.
Yes. Youtube external URL links are permitted. Shore Summer Rentals has a dedicated area in our listings to place up to 3 external Youtube links that pertain to your property you created on our website. Links to any other external sites is strictly PROHIBITED. If we see links to external sites anywhere on your rental listing, it will be removed and you will be notified and warned once. If it is placed on the listing again, your listing will be removed from our website without refund.

Yes, but Youtube links only. View instructions on how to upload Youtube videos to your vacation rental listing here.
Note: All links must be approved and must reside only in the authorized section. This feature is solely for the purpose of advertising the subject property and/or local information of the towns that your property is located. No competitor or inappropriate links are permitted and will be removed. If competitor or inappropriate website links are displayed, we have the right to suspend your listing without refund.
It all depends on the Main Membership that you purchase. We offer 4 Main Membership levels, Silver, Gold, Diamond and Platinum. The higher the membership level you purchase, the higher your rental listing will appear in the search results. To makes it fair to everyone in their membership type, all listings randomly rotate every 20 minutes within their membership type. View Membership Details.

Absolutely not! We do not charge for updates to your listings. As a active owner, you are entitled to login to your account and make changes to your ad as you see fit. We provide you with the necessary online tools to easily update your vacation rental property listings.
A picture is worth a thousand words. I cannot stress enough how important photos are since most renters will not see your property until the day that they pull up to at the start of their vacation. Make sure your photos are very bright and you post all the rooms of the home as well as the surrounding areas. People love outdoor shots such as ocean views, the beach, the boardwalk, nightlife, etc. More pictures will put you ahead of all the competition and secure you significantly more rental income than owners who only post a couple dark interior photos. Professional real estate photography is very affordable and will showcase your home in an incredible light. Contact us for photographer recommendations.
Yes. There is an availability calendar in which you simply select the dates your vacation rental property is unavailable. Renters can now search by property availability so please keep the calendar up to date. It's easy to use and is provided at no extra charge. We also have an import/export feature to sync your calendar with other platforms. View calendar editing instructions here.
Login to your account. Click on the Calendar link in your dashboard. View calendar editing instructions here.
YES. Keeping your calendar up to date is required. Please be sure that your calendar is up to date and accurate.

View entering and editing instructions here.
It is highly recommended that all rentals have rental rates posted. Our statistics prove that most renters skip over rental homes that do not have rates posted. View entering and editing rates instructions here.
* Most properties are searched by rates so if your rates are not posted in the actual rate table, your ad will not show up when someone searches by rates so you will lose significant exposure.
You determine the price to charge for your vacation rental property. Per the NJ Real Estate Commission, we are not permitted to suggest rental pricing. If you aren't sure what to charge for your rental, I suggest searching other properties on ShoreSummerRentals.com that match your property size, age of home, amenities, distance to beach. etc. and review their rental rates for comparison. You may update your pricing structure at any time.
Absolutely not! As a renter, you will not pay us anything for booking a rental from our website.
Yes. ShoreSummerRentals.com offers the Google map feature for visitors to see the exact location of your property. By entering your property address, the map feature will automatically activate showing the location of your rental home. Please note that in order for the Google map feature to work, you need have your street address ONLY in the address field. For example, you cannot have "123 Summer Street (near 4th Street)" in the address field. It does seem to work if you have "123 Summer Street, 2nd Floor" though. If you still notice that the map is showing incorrectly, go to the property location field when logged in and tab out of the field. This fine tunes the map.
If Google Maps is not displaying the location of your property accurately, it is usually beyond our control but please contact us and we will see if we can help. You can also check out Google Maps Support.
No, you can not disable the map.

The ShoreSummerRentals.com website has been a high traffic resource since 2004, receiving hundreds of thousands of visits per month. Traffic, however, is a relative measure. What counts is the quality of traffic received on the website, not just the quantity. We pride ourselves in the volume of quality inquiries received on a regular basis, i.e., serious travelers looking to rent your vacation rental property at the NJ Shore.
Results are key, and to that end we have gone to great lengths to make sure that vacation rental listing on the ShoreSummerRentals.com receive maximum exposure.

By making sure that our site is optimized for search engine indexing and is search engine friendly, we have been able to achieve phenomenal results with many of the top search engines and indexes on the Internet. We continually strive to make our site as easily accessible and well placed as possible.
The most important advantage is the value. In business since 2004, we offer exceptional value when you advertise your vacation rental on ShoreSummerRentals.com. Our owners secure unlimited rentals for one low yearly price. We do not take anything else at all, no service fees or commissions. Our owners save thousadns of dollars per year plus have full control. Our renters are also exempt from the NJ Shore Tax by booking direct with the owners. They are tired of paying booking fees and taxes on those larger sites. Our renters are educated and refuse to throw away hundreds, even thousands of dollars for a one week rental.

Thank you so much for spreading the word about ShoreSummerRentals.com. If the owner that you referred enters your name as the referral source when listing their rental home, you will qualify for the referral credit. You will receive an email at the end of that month from Raya, with a promo code for credit to use on your next renewal, once the 180 days window has passed.
You can access the Referral Credit guidelines and instructions here.
Yes, but no refunds or credits will be given for any unused time. Please contact us to cancel your rental listing.

All cancellation policies are at the discretion of the individual owners. You will need to discuss cancellation policies with the owners/managers of the rental homes. Before signing a lease or sending the owner any money, make sure that you have a Rental Agreement with the refund policy spelled out very clearly. Most rentals do not allow cancellations unless the property can be re-rented for the same time frame. I highly recommend Cancel for any Reason travel insurance. As far as I know, this insurance will not cover the COVID-19 outbreak but I am not an insurance agent so please contact them directly with any questions. Below are a couple of travel insurance companies:
1. Nationwide Travel Insurance

Booking directly with the owner will save renters hundreds, even thousands of dollars for a one week rental.

All vacation rental leases must be coordinated by the property owner. We supply sample leases and welcome letters, a rental procedure checklist, and an inventory checklist in the Owner's Tools area of the active owner dashboard. Login to your owner account now.
There are several options receommended.
Option 1:
I highly recommend installing a combination door lock so no key is needed at all, just a code. This way all you have to do is e-mail your renter a letter a week before their arrival with instructions, directions and codes. That is what I do and it works out great. I purchased a Schlage model at Lowe's.
Option 2:
You can also purchase a real estate lock box that you leave your keys in and secure it somewhere on your property.
Option 3:
You can also mail the keys to the renter a week before their scheduled vacation with a letter explaining what is expected during their stay and upon their departure along with directions to the property. You can include a padded self addressed envelope for them to drop in the mail after they leave.

Yes. To find a listing and you know the rental id, enter the ID in the search box on the homepage of ShoreSummerRentals.com and click on Search.
Our owners are instructed to respond to renter requests within 24 hours but sometimes they may take a little longer. I alway recommend that renters also follow up with the owner by telephone. Their phone number is on their rental listing page labeled “Call Contact”.
If you still do not receive a response after 48 hours, please contact us and we will reach out to them as well.
In the meantime, I would start looking for other homes on ShoreSummerRentals.com in case their homes are not available.
To avoid SSRNJ.com getting tagged as a spam site, guests are only permitted to send up to 15 email inquiries to our hosts in a 24 hour period. There really is no reason to send more than that as you also have the option to call the host .
The CAN-SPAM Act establishes requirements for commercial messages and spells out tough penalties for violations.
Unsolicited commercial e-mail (SPAM) is prohibited from being sent through our system. That is why it is very important NOT to add your email in your descriptions where it is visible to be spidered and used to bombard you with SPAM. For further information about internet fraud and fake check scams, see fraud.org.
While abuse and fraud is not common in the vacation rentals industry, we recommend you take certain steps to protect yourself and increase the chance that your transaction goes smoothly.
Some vacation rental sites offer free trials or free listings, but these increase the chance of abuse and fraud because the owner is not verified by way of a financial transaction, listings are often copied from other sites and have errors and are out of date. It's safer to use ShoreSummerRentals.com as we devote significant resources to verify the legitimacy of our owners and their listings. We can also assure you that we investigate suspicious listings and remove listings for serious or multiple complaints.
We recommend that you request references, ask for a rental contract, and research the owner and property before your stay. You should also never wire money to owners via Western Union, Money gram or other instant wire transfer services. If you do not feel comfortable working with a certain owner, move on to a different rental.
Beware of scammers that send you an inquiry, which may seem legitimate, but send you more than your rental fees and ask you wire back the difference. The check they send you will be a fake, but usually takes the bank several weeks to catch it. By then, you have wired the difference back and will be unable to recover what you have sent. In some instances, the bad check will even clear your bank initially. We suggest you insist on exact payment, however, if you do accept an overpayment, wait at least 30 days before returning any funds. If you receive a suspicious inquiry mentioning that a third party (a business, assistant, or someone who owes them money) is going to send an overpayment, we recommend that you delete the inquiry without responding. See fraud.org for more information.
Usually emails with poor grammar, spelling, odd use of capital letters and/or asking you to wire money or participate in an unusual bank transaction is a scam. The sender is usually attempting to obtain money, personal information or your email address. We recommend that you let us know you received this through our service and delete the message without responding. For further information about internet fraud and fake check scams, see fraud.org.
We put our owners through a thorough verification process in order to prove ownership before allowing their ads to display live on our websites. That being said, since the online service we provide for vacationers is comparable to that offered by a newspaper or magazine through which vacation homes are advertised, we still recommend that you take steps to protect yourself by requesting references and a list of past renters from the homeowners before agreeing to rent. If possible, we also suggest that you visit the property in advance.
If you are the victim of fraud/scam from a listing found on Shore Summer Rentals, please contact us with all the details.
Shore SummerRentals.com have employed sophisticated technology to ensure the most secure website for our advertisers and visitors. Our website was designed with your security in mind.

We do not offer damage insurance as we do not manage any part of the rental transaction. We do prefer that our owners require the tenants to leave a refundable security deposit as those tenants tend to take care of and leave the homes in better condition. If you prefer damage insurance, feel free to contact the insurance companies directly. I pasted a few below that may offer damage insurance.

How to update your web browser.
Keeping your web browser up to date is very important. Out of date web browsers can have serious security problems.

Many popular websites, such as Gmail and Facebook no longer support older browsers.
Fortunately, most modern web browsers will automatically update themselves so that you're always running the most current version. You no longer need to actually "download and install" the latest version yourself; it will do it for you.
Why should I update my web browser?
