re: Booking through VRBO

You will be fine booking through VRBO and it's the best single site to find listings (although HomeAway, the parent company has a much better site design)
VRBO should change their name though, because in tourist areas most of the listing are from agents so you are still paying agency fees on top of VRBO fees. It's no longer the "cut out the middle man" value it once was. The actual owners using VRBO to rent their properties have responded by increasing their pricing to match the agencies.

That's true. However in the filter section they have the managed by tab. If you select owner a lot of the listing have the owners phone number and you can call them direct, often times you can get a night free. I just booked a condo in PCB for less than the advertised price on VRBO by contacting the owner directly.
