Beware renting from ENGEL & VOLKERS Deposit pratices Published by gogilvie 27th August 2008

Beware renting from ENGEL & VOLKERS I would like to warn potential renters about Engel & Volkers outrageous attempt at theft from a deposit on a villa rental in Ibiza. After a week where a group of six of us stayed in the villa for a week and left it in a near spotless condition and no damage whatsoever was caused, I received the following demand for payment from them. Extra house cleaning: euro 144,- (12 hours x euro 12) Extra pool cleaning: euro 25,52 (euro 22,- + 16% IVA) Lime cleaning inside and outside floor: euro 185,60 (5 hours x euro 18,- = euro 90,- + euro 40,- material + euro 30,- transfer + euro 25,60 IVA) Kitchen drawer, transfer and installation: euro 139,20 (euro 120,- + IVA) Curtain drawstring, transfer and installation: euro 104,40 (euro 90,- + IVA) Clearly potential renters should bear in mind that Engel Volkers will attempt to extort money for unnecessary cleaning charges on top of that which should be included in the hefty rental price, and invent damage that will be billed.
