They will not pay for a phone service, so if we do that, I would have to pay for it unfortunately. 

Hi All,New to the forum and wanted to offer my services.

There's HVAC servicing once a year on each unit.

I'm keen to connect with fellow STR owners in the area to gather insights on the ease of finding cleaning services and associated running costs.

The con is it is putting upward pressure on the cost of service.

I read some old posts where folks have suggested using non locking door knobs is that something tenants like ?

There was an offset, but it was just past the service box for the home (city responsibility) as we saw it.

It seems if you are far away from this property then it might be a good idea to consider hiring the services of an experienced property manager who really could provide ongoing communication during the whole stay.  

A couple of questions: do you have students call the utility services to put the services under their names before move in?

Whether it's mold, COVID, or a non-paying renter, a quality PM acts quickly and decisively to protect people, property, and the landlord.If you feel the PM was negligent in their response, you can file a complaint with the state commission.
