Big Bear Lake requires “face-to-face” key hand off for rental owners, implying the Host (or someone) physically hand the keys to a Guest at the begginign of their stay.
I am strongly considering purchasing a property within the boundaries of Big Bear Lake and managing it remotely. Local property managers offer this face-to-face service as part of their management package which is ~30%. But this monstrous cut would invalidate potential profit on the property.
Does anyone rent a property in Big Bear Lake and have a creative solution for this face-to-face requirement?
I’m imagining: Video calls at the time of check-in; a local service provider at a reasonable rate, etc
