Start free by studying top local listings for lighting and cozy vibes, as John suggests, then add a Cleveland twist (e.g., skyline art) to create an experience.I manage STRs and mid-term rentals in North Atlanta (North Fulton, Cobb, Gwinnett, Cherokee, Paulding).

I never like them to do it themselves because when we first started they did not match the color/finish correctly, and they get it on all the switches, baseboards, etc...The lease agreement has these provisions...Tenant agrees to use small nails and picture hangers when hanging pictures, mirrors, etc.

I started with a property management company.
