This was the response in her email :"My situation is unique, my mother takes care of the rent (god bless her heart for real!)

Also, seems like there may be something going on that the homeowner is having appointments without the presence of their representation.

Any QI with a national presence can help you out. 

The basic data points as I think of them:---What is your gross rental income per booking---What is your cost per welcome basket---What is the increase in chance of a repeat booking, based on the presence of the welcome basket---Secondarily, what is the change in likelihood of a great review, based on presence of welcome basket     If you have a high gross rental income per booking (say average $5k per booking), and you can offer an incredibly high impact welcome basket at a low cost (say the basket costs $20 but includes dates harvested from the date palm trees located on the property), you will likely find this yields huge returns in repeat bookings and reviews.
