The way "Showami" works is you enter your property address and a showing time and also what you are willing to pay (35 dollars is minimum last I checked) and the request gets blasted and one of the licensed agents picks it up.3) I have also used people on TaskRabbit for showings but not great fan.4) I have used cleaners that I have used in past to show the property.5) I have used my other tenants (who I know have clean records) and paid them like 50 dollars per showing.

I spend literally just minutes each week between communicating with guests and my cleaning/maintenance team, as well as ordering more items that the cleaner says we need to stock up on for the property.I can see the need for property management services if/when you have a larger portfolio of properties, but for a single property I highly recommend doing it yourself and saving the money.

For example: Do you pay your cleaners to ship them back to the guest and charge a fee to the guest?

I believe with Evolve the owner is responsible for guest communication and managing the cleaners.

Caustic drain cleaners will leave a telltale mark in an aluminum sink, if your tenants know that they'll think twice about using it.btw, dumbest tenant I ever had was a college kid I was renting a room to when I was in college.

Prices have come down, but like everything, contractors don't just take the prices down when they make quotes, because they got taken to the cleaners on bids before prices shot up.8. 

If you have a good cleaner you always have eyes on the property to make sure everything is going well.

@Rod Oliver finding cleaners is definitely a challenge just like finding good employees is in any business the key is scale having more places helps a lot.

If you just would enjoy having someone make your food, I don't see a problem with that as long as it's worth the money trade off.we have a house cleaner and have for 20 plus years.. 

And while compound interest is the greatest slave, it is the harshest master.It's taken 4 years to get to where we are, so what we are doing is not working.
