I’m new to Airbnb and looking for any advice

Brandon Wallace
Posted

My friend is the property owner. She is moving to Texas and I am the property manager because I live in the area. Essentially, we would like her to be able to be hands off and I’ll take care of it all. 

My first question is, what should I set for a cleaning fee? Our cleaner said she would charge anywhere from $100-$120 per cleaning. Right now we have the cleaning fee set at $50/stay. Is $100-$120 too much to charge for a cleaning fee? To me, that seems very high. 

Also, any other advice would help a ton! We are both brand new to this. I currently own one rental but I am new to the STR's. Thank you in advanced!

    I would set the cleaning fee for at least what it costs 

    If you feel the cleaning fee is high get some other quotes
