Steam cleaned the carpets, etc, and he determined there was no damage.

Cleaning.

I have properties in the city that I allow pets bc I know those tenants will be required to clean up after them per city laws.

While you can try and do a DIY cost seg, it is very tricky to understand the tax law piece and the engineering/construction piece.

These two were grateful to me that I was helping them clean their warehouse and get rid of their shittiest products that no one was willing to buy from them.

We rent single family homes, so we have a conversation about yard maintenance, snow removal etc - have you don't this before, do you have the tools etcI also bring up house cleaning questions, by telling them we had a tenant who did not own a vacuum cleaner, did not know how to run a dishwasher, had a mess in the basement etc - and then see how they respond.That is a non-offensive way to talk about house cleaning and you'd be surprised how different the responses are.

I’m told mixed fund types is ok but I’m curious if my arms-length restrictions on DIY work are imposed on the other investors by proxy.

Find out what a typical nightly rate is for your area (not what air bnb charges, the actual nightly rate the owner will receive not including the cleaning fee).

If it were me, I would get them out now so you can clean/renovate during the winter and get it on the market in early Spring.

It wasn't the messiest thing I've seen, but still required clean up on my end which the clients weren't happy about at all.The third client is a self employed hair dresser and she compained of poor communication, inability to understand what they wanted form her and complete confusion over their payroll directions.For the price paid, I'd say the results were mediocre at best.
