co host for a client request

A client has requested me to manage his property and to rent out rooms on airbnb website as my client uses the property from time to time also.  Can anyone advise me on co hosting fees for rooms in a client's property in Dublin 8 area?

Also how you manage the cleaning and the laundry.  I will not have the time for cleaning and laundry so I would have to pay out professionals for this work. 

Any help or guidance appreciated as I am new to it.  I am trying to get involve in more of this work as my private rental work the clients are selling their properties due to further legislation.  Thank you.

@Margaret-T1 I run into a fair number of STR property managers and many charge around 20% of the accommodation fare as an ongoing management commission. They also typically retain the cleaning fees paid by guests on Airbnb to cover the cost of cleaning and turnover services, so those expenses don't come out of your commission.

 

That said, it's always best to confirm local market rates in your area, since Dublin's rates can vary depending on demand, property size, and the level of service you're providing (for example, if you're handling guest communication, maintenance coordination, and listing optimization). It sounds like you're approaching this professionally.. just be sure to price in your time for oversight of cleaning and laundry vendors so you're not undercharging for your effort.

Thank you very much Jason.
