Should there be any dissatisfaction with any of the services offered by RenterNetwork, You agree to provide express written notice to RenterNetwork, and provide RenterNetwork the opportunity to cure or accommodate the alleged dissatisfaction within a three (3) month period. The three (3) month period shall begin from the date that the written notice is received by RenterNetwork.

The written notice shall begin with a subject line (or title), which recites, in all capital letters, "REPORTING OF DISSATISFACTION WITH RENTERNETWORK." You agree to strictly follow these procedures for reporting any dissatisfaction, without any deviation, prior to commencing any other action, legal or equitable, against RenterNetwork. If You commence any action against RenterNetwork prior to following these procedures, and prior to providing RenterNetwork the opportunity to address any alleged dissatisfaction, then You agree to pay all costs associated with such action against RenterNetwork. Such costs shall include court fees, attorneys' fees, filing fees, incidental costs, travel costs, lodging expenses, and any other costs, both foreseeable and unforeseeable, that are incurred by RenterNetwork in defending against such action.
