For Sublime1-ga only. You have already answered this question. Please
collect your $50.00 fee. (The original fee of $100.00 was split with
another researcher.)

I am interested in locating sites on the internet that list very
upscale, short-term rental accommodation. This is the type of
accommodation (large elaborate condos, or standalone homes) that would
be sought out by, celebrity athletes, movie stars, VIPs, etc. My
primary interest is in urban Canada, but I would also be interested in
similar sites listing homes in the US.

Typically, rental rates for these start at about $25,000 per month.
The minimal rental period is usually one month.

I don?t know if it?s possible to verify the legitimacy of these sites
before hand, in terms of the veracity of the claims they make for
these homes. Because I live offshore, I would not have the opportunity
to view this accommodation before renting it and so would require 
comprehensive descriptions of the available properties along with
suitable photographs.

For the purpose of clarifying this request, at this point I am not
looking for a specific property as much as I am a selection of
suitable properties from which to choose.

Thanks very much for working with us to accommodate two researchers.
Your patience and cooperation have been very helpful, and are much
appreciated.

I will repost my response below for the sake of future readers.
