Why doesn't this exist for STR & MTR? Turno but for handyman

[Kimberly C.]

Just like the title suggests, the next evolution for short-term and mid-term rental is for some company to streamline the handyman process.  

Long story short, my 2023 year EXPLODED with some out-of-state investment properties...including 2 STR properties that closed literally on the same day (that was fun and I could probably write a book about the ridiculous situations I got myself into...and then out of while trying to set things up, lol). Wow, that seems like decades ago (and it was only a couple months ago). But I learned so much and at least ANYTHING now will seem like a cake-walk :-P

So here I am, just NOW logging back in to biggerpockets and looking to strike up conversations again with like-minded real estate investors.  I've spent a good amount of time making local connections in the areas I've invested in. I have a solid boots-on-the-ground team supporting me with my current properties but I still see a way for things to be even MORE streamlined.  Especially in the "odd jobs" and handyman service areas. 

Yes, there's always the "throw the job out on thumbtack, taskrabbit, etc" but that still has some overhead involved.

If Turno had some feature to find a "handyman" for a task at a certain property EXACTLY like it does for finding a cleaner to clean a certain property...take my money! Why doesn't this exist?

I totally get what you're saying and it seems like a no brainer. Yes, there are other apps that offer this service, but I get your point that having it all in one place would mean fewer systems to manage. I think it's brilliant and I hope Turno is open to it (or some comparable platform). The cleaner and handyman positions for STR and MTR go hand-in-hand so it makes sense that this would be an additional task that could be added. I'm all for it and love your suggestion!
