Recommendations - Short Term Rental Property Management

We are closing on our next primary home at the end of this month and will be turning our current home into a STR. The STR is located near downtown Nashville.

We are looking for STR Property Management recommendations. We have had multiple calls with Evolve Vacation Rentals but we are somewhat getting cold feet due to the amount of negative reviews from both owners and guests. There are also a number of glowing reviews but would like to hear from the amazing BP Network. We were initially drawn in by their (to our knowledge) industry low management fee. That being said, I acknowledge "you get what you pay for."

Recommendations don’t have to be local to the Nashville area but are obviously welcomed.

 Evolve's management fee is low because they only do the easiest parts of management.  Listing and answering inquires is easy peezy.  You get stuck with the late night maintenance requests and all that jazz.  Even that is not that difficult though, self managing is the #1 option and what 90% of us here do and will recommend.

If you're set on paying someone to do the easy stuff though I'm sure someone here would do Evolve's part of things for half the price and a 5x better job.  Heck I would.  It's 20 minutes of work a week.
