A rental just needs to be clean and servicable.

The only times that I've allowed this was a situation where there was a cleaning or a maintenance issue, which ultimately falls on me.  

I cannot find anything specific to dryer vent cleaning anywhere.

It might help you out if you're a hammer swinger type guy who can produce workmen like quality results versus homeowner DIY results.Someone who has been in this business for awhile , and brings a lot more knowledge , and contacts to the deal we'll have a lot better chance at performing a turn around on the property then to someone who is new and inexperienced. 

.), where things are (cleaning supplies, trash, etc.) and points of interest in the area (such as local attractions and restaurants).As I am new and definitely still learning, if I missed something please let me know.Wish you the best as you get set up!

If the islands can clean up quick I think we will continue business as usual. 

Originally drafted to prevent landlords from using security deposits for cleaning or repairs, the bill was amended after opposition from the California Apartment Association (CAA).Landlords will now need to photograph rental units before tenants move in, at the end of the lease, and after repairs or cleaning.

10% is probably a little steep, and like John said, a flat fee may be more reasonable.Setting up a proper STR is not cheap, but once you are set up properly, you deal with routine breakage.I recommend managing yourself and saving the 20% personally, getting a rockstar cleaning team and a reliable handy person, using something like Hospitable that can help automate messaging when listing, and reading the book from the bookstore here called Short-Term Rental, Long-Term Wealth.

Put locks on each bedroom door so individual tenants have security of their personal belongings.You need a really good set of rules regarding shared common space, cleaning, kitchen use, bathroom use, etc.Be very clear about the rules up front, and selective about who you put in there.

I have a cleaning crew in to clean the common areas every other week.
