Rent by the Room Virtual Assistant's

Jorge, 

Yeah, there are definitely VAs who specialize in rent-by-the-room strategies, but finding the right one is key. You don’t just need a general admin—you need someone who understands tenant turnover, screening multiple tenants per unit, handling lease coordination, and managing communication between roommates (which can get messy fast).

A solid VA for this model should be able to:

• Screen inquiries and prequalify tenants based on house rules.
• Manage listings on platforms like Facebook Marketplace, Zillow, and Roomster.
• Coordinate move-ins/move-outs and track leases for each tenant.
• Handle maintenance requests and keep an eye on potential conflicts between tenants.
• Chase rent payments if needed.

If you’re thinking about hiring one, I’d focus on VAs with property management or co-living experience—not just someone who has worked in real estate generally. Best bet? Look on Upwork or specialized VA agencies that cater to property managers. Also, test them with real scenarios before hiring—this strategy can get chaotic, and you need someone who can keep things running smoothly.

Are you self-managing, or do you have a local team handling things on the ground?

I hope this helps you ! Best of luck
