So I’m basically just charging for the cleaning.

We went with 2 of the wash towers in our STR and we are our cleaner's favorite house to care for - the love that they can get all the linens clean so quickly! 

I had to abandon a vacation and come here to oversee this and clean up her mess. 

Louis, MO.I have a question that I was hoping the BP community could help with: I was wondering if anybody could point me in the direction of a nice, clean, and easy to use accounting spreadsheet template (or something of that nature) for real estate investing book-keeping?

It takes 3-5 days where I am for a commitment to come back, assuming it is clean, I do the following three things:Take the original contract, cut a tiny strip of paper and scotch tape it over the price and make a copy.

Refund the cleaning fee. 

Keep in mind that the home will likely need thorough cleaning and repairs may be extensive.Ask about short salesIf a homeowner needs or wants to sell a home that isn’t worth what they owe on it, the lender may consider a short sale.

We've had 2 units rented long-term at our MTR rate which seems like a homerun to us because we have no vacancy, cleanings, turns, etc.

An INVESTOR does not repair appliances, does not unclog toilets, does not paint walls, clean units, OWNER OPERATORS do those things, Business Owners/Operators do those things, NOT INVESTORS. 

His were cheap to buy, easy to clean and are booked continuously, he has the HOA to contend with.
