Outsourcing Furnishing and Set Up for STR's

I would LOVE to offer services setting up and furnishing STR's for investors who are out of state or otherwise don't have the ability to do it themselves. It would complement my renovation/design business and would be so much fun! I've done it for friends and family and plenty of young dudes who don't know what a hand towel is and why someone might want one, but never really considered making it an arm of my business.

If you've hired people to do this before, how and what did they charge or what services would you expect? What did you like or dislike about what they did for you? Being a thrifty person, I hate the idea of charging a % of budget fee, as some designers do, that's too much a conflict of interest - I'd rather be incentivized to save money, not max out a budget. But it also takes a lot more work to be thrifty than just placing a giant retail order and assembling some furniture. Thoughts?
