Best Practices in Finding a Property Manager @Dawn1155 

When looking for a reliable property manager, here are some best practices to keep in mind:

Look for Local Experience: Choose someone who understands your area’s short-term rental market. They’ll know the competition, pricing trends, and guest expectations.

Check Reviews and References: Ask for references or look for reviews from other hosts. A trustworthy manager should have a proven track record.

Ask About Services Offered: Make sure they cover everything you need — guest communication, cleaning coordination, restocking supplies, maintenance, and pricing strategy.

Evaluate Communication Skills: Great communication is key. Choose a manager who is responsive and transparent.

Understand Their Fee Structure: Some managers charge a percentage, others a flat rate. Be clear on what’s included and what might cost extra.

Check If They're an Airbnb Co-Host: Using an official co-host ensures they can manage your listing within Airbnb’s platform, giving you better control and transparency.
