Took a call today on the office line from Dish One.

They have unusual phone numbers (satellite phones) and also heavy foreign accents but they will talk a good talk.   

Dehumidifier install--I'll bet they really like that.So even if they are a put off by the timing they will be more comfortable.If it were mine and and only 1 rental, or only 1 or 2, the "Rental Experience" I want to offer in this instance would be to try to find a convenient time that works for both.No need to play Drill Sargent and make them feel their privacy has been violated in a SFH as long as the option to be flexible is there.But, if you have no other option, then you have no other option.I'd let them scurry to clean the place for the visit (dust, pick up old crushed beer cans, empty ash trays (and hide them), wash the dishes, make the beds, move secret pets somewhere, etc....Turns are expensive, why step  on a Hornets nest if you have another option.An apartment complex is different, those run on a schedule, home or not, dryer vents get cleaned, washer hoses replaced, filters replaced, leaks fixed, etc...Just my 2 cents.

we ask that they do the dishes/run dishwasher, that's it. the rest is our job.and we have a vacuum at each location. but you should ask your cleaners if they bring their own. they're cheap enough to have one at each property if needed.

I have over 10 years of experience in business marketing and program management with large companies such as Samsung and XM Satellite Radio.  

They wash linens (but we provide them), they provide sponges, dish soap, bar soap, towels, toilet paper.

Are you sure you don't want to think over the "No Dishwasher"  It is my understanding that dish washers use less water then washing by hand and you can buy a dishwasher for the same price as a Kitchen cabinet.  

Set an expectation that no one leaves their dishes in the sink.

This removes them from future mailings, and you can take down the seller information, property information, loan/debt information, include satellite/map/street view, maybe incorporate Zillow valuation tools, places to load your own comp data, etc.

…On that thread others that had been involved in frivolous law suits only to have to dish out a lot of cash to either protect themselves personally or their company.
