• Turning over houses and smaller units between guests on a daily basis
• Routine deep cleaning of the properties
• Regular maintenance tasks to ensure the properties are in excellent condition

Repair and maintenance compensation based on experience.

Cleanings may be required 7 days a week, with occasional long days as well as days with no cleans.
