Cleaning expense as a % of revenue? I'll show mine...
BLUF: Expressed as a percentage of revenue; what are your cleaning costs? please chime in if you can help with any other STR industry averages for expenses.
For the trailing 12months my cleaning expenses account for approximately 15% of my revenue which is the largest expense I have. I would love to know if my cleaning expense is within industry norms.
Thanks BP Family

I don't have any cleaning expense. This is a straight pass through to the renter. The more it's rented the more the cleaning people make.
I actually charge a little more than the cleaning costs to offset consumables.
