Hello Sarah977 (and anybody else who happens to read my question) . I've been asked to replace the host of an apartment where most units are rented (I think 2 or 3 of them), in a populous, very famous, and expensive, city, for half a year (albeit not the most expensive part of it)
I would actually be living in one of the bedrooms in the property, and have access to a shared kitchen and bathroom. I would mostly be in charge of the cleaning and the laundry (which can be exhausting, depending on how often guests move in and out) . I would not be handling the keys (that's automatized)
She has offered me 10%, which, considering I'll be staying in the property, I have thought a bit low, but still fair, assuming I am also paid the totality of the cleaning fees. (she has not mentioned the cleaning fees, and I have not yet, either) . I am not sure what other responsibilities this would entail... what to do when, for instance, something gets broken (a pipe, a handle, a sink clogged etc.)
If I have to do laundry every two days, I think it is on the low side... if I have to do it every week, I think it is alright... any thoughts? And do you have any suggestions whether (and how) we should draw a contract? Thanks very much, in advance, for any information.
