The biggest issue I see is control of the thermostat.

My experience shows it cost way more than 5K in marketing per contract and The close ratio is less than 50% due to title issues or a seller changing their mind and/or being difficult ect.I believe it, it was just an example. 

Quote from @Julia Lyrberg: Hi Csingh, Sorry to hear about the tenant issues—that can definitely be a difficult experience.

There's a very good chance the issue(s) you face have already been discussed and answered.Ask questions in the appropriate forum.

I've learned the easiest way to do this is ask the owner to remove everything unnecessary for guest use AND give us permission and the freedom to remove items as we see best.Less stuff in the home, less issues and less work each turnover.

Of course home owners have no issue just put a plug in your home .. 

Never had an issue in 5 years of this when tenants have moved out I just send my house cleaner in for a deep clean NO turn over costs other than that.

I have a great tenant and very few repairs issues (I put in a new HVAC and water heater a year before I moved out) but will eventually need a new roof (house was built in 2005).

30 day or greater stay is not the issue with Irvington.
