Priorities when setting up a short-term management company

[Alex Griffith]

A partner and I are looking to set up a property management company. A lot of the topics I see here are intended for owners, not managers. I just want to know what to make sure we have in our plan before we execute. I know the services we should provide such as maintenance, housekeeping, concierge, and keeping the rentals filled as many nights as possible, but what about the specifics?

I know we need to find a good professional cleaning company, we need to find insurance. We need good software as well. What are your guys' recommendations?
