I also know to put off the cleaner until the VERY end.

@Joe S.If you are looking for someone to purchase furniture, supplies, keyless lock, and set that up for you...then you might be able to ask your cleaner, handyman, or combination of both.If you are looking to determine if a home in a given market will make a good STR....I like to do that research myself.   

In addition, you will need to hire cleaners etc.

However, this notion was struck down in court by the wording “beneficial” interest in mortgage and deed of trust documents.Bottom line there is nothing that a property placed in trust can do that a single member LLC can’t do cheaper, easier, and “cleaner”, in MOST cases.

Get a great cleaner and handy person.

The ways to help mitigate that is to use automation software which helps drastically reduce the time involved with an STR, setup a good team (cleaner, handyman, plumber, electrician, appliance, hvac person), and have an exit strategy if short-term regulation does come to that area. 

You'll start to hear some of the same names crop up for handymen/cleaners/etc.   

I managed remotely using automation integrations with Mailchimp, Zapier and other home automation systems, but the most important thing is to just make sure you have a great cleaners who will be communicative to you if anything looks off. 

It sounds like they do not owe anything which makes seller financing much cleaner.

I'm looking for a handyman(woman) and a Cleaner in the Blue Ridge/Morganton GA area for our STR.
