The feedback can only be left once, and it cannot be edited afterwards. The site admin will reserve its right to delete malicious or untrue feedbacks.

On a Dutch Auction, the auctioneer has more weeks of the same property to let. The bidder will enter a maximum bid he is willing to rent a property for, and the number of units (days/weeks/months) they wants to purchase. The highest bidder(s) will receive the number of weeks they have bid on, and the remaining bidders will receive the number of weeks still available. Buyers are able to bid more than once for the same item.
