First-time renter questions (by Fdm F.):

Just heard about Redweek today and decided to join and pay the membership fee to see the available rentals. I really like this site. As I am new to this, I had several questions:

-Is it an option to pay with Paypal? I am most comfortable paying with a credit card via Paypal. I would be hesitant to send large sums of money to someone I didn't know without some security. I saw the escrow service option, but the charges seemed high if the potential rental is just $500-$1000.

-Actual cost? If a listing is for say $300/night for 7 days, total of $2100, would this be the total cost? Would there be any other fees such as taxes, resort fees, cleaning?

-Can a rental be obtained for fewer days than posted (say 4 instead of 7)?

-Mexico all-inclusive resorts: Does the 'all-inclusive' part come included? Is there an extra fee for this, and usually how much?
