6. Bookings and Financial Terms

6.1. Listings: Hosts can create listings for properties available for short-term rental on the Furnished Med platform. Hosts must provide accurate and complete information regarding the property, including but not limited to descriptions, pricing, availability, and any applicable property rules. Furnished Med reserves the right to review, edit, or remove any listings that do not comply with our standards.

6.2. Bookings: Renters may book properties listed on the platform by following the outlined booking process. Bookings are subject to the terms and conditions set forth by the respective property host. Renters are responsible for reading the listing details carefully and adhering to all rules provided by the host.

6.3. Payments: Furnished Med does not process payments directly through our platform. Users are responsible for facilitating all fees and charges related to their bookings, which may include rental fees, cleaning fees, taxes, deposits, service fees, and any other charges incurred through their rental listings. 

• Because Furnished Med does not facilitate payment processing, we reserve the right to not engage in any payment disputes between hosts and tenants regarding their lease agreement. It is the responsibility of both parties to resolve any disputes, whether civil or legal, directly or through applicable third-party payment services. Users are encouraged to document all transactions and communications to aid in resolving any disputes independently.

• When engaging in payment transactions, whether directly or through third-party services, users assume all liability. Users are advised to consult relevant state and local laws for legal guidance on such transactions. For those utilizing third-party payment services, it is important to review and understand the respective terms of service provided by those third parties. This ensures compliance with external policies and awareness of any associated risks or conditions.

6.4. Deposits: Furnished Med does not require a security deposit from tenants to ensure reservation, accountability or to cover potential damages or additional charges during the rental period. However, each host has the right to display and request security deposits for their listings from prospective tenants to cover such scenarios. Furnished Med reserves the right to not engage in disputes between users regarding issues that could have otherwise been addressed through a security deposit as outlined in a lease agreement.

6.4.1. For Hosts

• Hosts who choose to request deposits for their listings are legally obligated to display such requests clearly and fairly to prospective tenants. This includes providing accurate information regarding the purpose of the deposit, the amount required, and any relevant terms or conditions.

• Hosts must ensure that all rental requests and associated fees are presented transparently, promoting fair practices within the Furnished Med platform. Hosts are encouraged to adhere to all applicable laws and regulations regarding rental agreements and deposit collection to ensure compliance and protect both themselves and their tenants.

• Although Furnished Med reserves the right to not engage in transactions between tenants and hosts, the platform is built on user trust. Hosts who engage in unfair, manipulative, or deceptive charges may be subject to consequences, including but not limited to listing removals, account suspension, or permanent bans from the platform.

6.4.2. For Tenants

• Tenants are encouraged to review any deposit requests made by hosts carefully. It is their responsibility to ensure they understand the purpose of the deposit, the amount required, and any relevant terms or conditions before agreeing to a rental.

• Tenants should engage in transparent communication with hosts regarding deposits and any associated charges. If there are concerns about the fairness or transparency of a deposit request, tenants are encouraged to seek clarification or voice their concerns with the host directly. It is advisable for tenants to document all communications regarding deposits.

• By utilizing Furnished Med, tenants agree to abide by the terms and conditions of the rental agreements. This includes honoring any deposit arrangements made with hosts, ensuring compliance with applicable laws and regulations related to rental agreements and deposits. Tenants retain the right to dispute any deposit requests they deem unfair or misleading.

6.5. Cancellation and Refunds: Furnished Med provides a booking system for tenants and hosts; however, cancellation and refund policies are ultimately determined by individual hosts. Tenants should review and understand each host’s cancellation policy prior to making a booking.

• Cancellation Policies: Hosts are responsible for clearly communicating their cancellation policies for each listing. These policies should outline the terms associated with cancellations, such as acceptable notice periods, any fees, or conditions that may apply.

• Cancellation Requests: Tenants are encouraged to communicate directly with hosts as soon as possible if they need to cancel a booking. Hosts should make reasonable efforts to accommodate cancellation requests.

• Refund Process: Refund requests, if applicable, should be directed to the host in accordance with their cancellation policy. Tenants are encouraged to document all communications regarding cancellations to facilitate a smooth process.

• Host Accountability: Hosts are expected to honor their stated cancellation policies. Furnished Med will not mediate disputes related to cancellations or refunds between tenants and hosts. Both parties should seek to resolve any disagreements in accordance with the terms set forth by the host.

• Best Practices: To ensure a positive experience for both tenants and hosts, open communication and clear expectations regarding cancellations are advised. Tenants should consider confirming the cancellation policy prior to making a reservation.

6.6. Taxes

• User Responsibility: Users are responsible for understanding and fulfilling their tax obligations related to transactions made on the Furnished Med platform. This includes, but is not limited to, any applicable occupancy taxes, income taxes, or other levies imposed by governmental authorities.

• Collection and Remittance by Furnished Med: Furnished Med may, where required by local laws and regulations, collect and remit taxes on behalf of hosts. The specific taxes collected and remitted will depend on local jurisdictional requirements.

• Tax Information: Hosts are responsible for determining their own tax requirements and obligations concerning the properties they list, including any obligations to report and remit applicable taxes, and should consult with a tax advisor if necessary.

• Tax Reporting: Furnished Med may provide users with relevant tax documents or information as required by law, and users consent to Furnished Med reporting any necessary information to tax authorities.

• Changes in Tax Laws: Users acknowledge that tax laws and regulations may change, potentially affecting taxes applicable to their transactions. Furnished Med will strive to comply with the latest laws but advises users to remain informed of changes to tax regulations that may impact them.

6.7. Refunds for Service Issues: Furnished Med is committed to providing a high-quality platform for both hosts and tenants. In the event of service issues related to the use of the platform, the following guidelines apply to subscription refunds for hosts.

• Definition of Service Issues: Service issues may include, but are not limited to, significant platform malfunctions, failure to provide promised features, or issues that prevent hosts from effectively managing their listings.

• Reporting Service Issues: Hosts experiencing service issues are encouraged to report these problems to Furnished Med’s support team promptly. Clear documentation of the issue will assist in the evaluation process.

• Refund Eligibility: Hosts may be eligible for a full or partial refund of the monthly subscription fee based on the nature and severity of the reported service issue. Refunds will be considered in cases where service failures materially impact the host’s ability to operate on the platform.

• Request Process: To initiate a refund request, hosts should submit their concerns in writing to Furnished Med’s support team, detailing the nature of the service issue, along with any relevant documentation.

• Limitations: Furnished Med reserves the right to assess refund requests and make determinations at its discretion. Hosts agree that Furnished Med’s decision regarding refunds is final.

• Continuous Improvement: Furnished Med values user feedback regarding service issues and uses these insights to improve platform functionality and user experience.

6.8. Disputes Over Payments: Furnished Med does not process payments directly between tenants and hosts; therefore, any disputes related to payments are strictly between the involved parties.

• Responsibility for Disputes: Tenants and hosts are responsible for addressing and resolving any payment disputes that arise as a result of their rental transactions. Furnished Med is not liable for any disagreements or lack of resolution related to payments.

• Communication: To facilitate resolution, both parties are encouraged to communicate openly and transparently regarding any payment concerns. This includes documenting all related correspondence.

• Seeking Resolution: If a payment dispute arises, tenants and hosts should make reasonable efforts to resolve the issue directly. This may include negotiating payment terms or clarifying expectations related to any charges.

• Furnished Med’s Role: Furnished Med does not mediate disputes between users regarding payments or financial transactions. Users acknowledge that all financial arrangements and disputes are solely the responsibility of the tenants and hosts involved.

• Legal Recourse: In the event that disputes cannot be resolved amicably, users may need to explore legal options or consult with relevant authorities, as Furnished Med will not engage in the dispute resolution process.
