Managing someone elses property

I have my own Airbnb listing that is very successful.  I  have been asked to manage a friends apartment.

Where I would do all communciation, meet and greet.  Manage the cleaners, arrange clean linen, purchase Tea, Coffee, soap etc.

 I would get paid a commission percentage of the tarif.  

What is the best way to do this, so it is seperate from my listing.

 

Hope some one can help me.

Hello! Do you need help managing your listing?

Can you be in a rental in Chicago and be an Air b&b property? 

Yes. Airbnb is global, and I'm originally from Chicago. Airbnb has various types of listings in chicago. 

I am in rogers park and would love to talk to you about managing my home.

I am curious as to what percentage of the total cost of the booking would "the manager" receive.  I have read about a 80% for the owner and 20% for the manager.  The 20% being for managing the bookings, communications with guests, keeping supplies topped up, and organizing cleans.  Or is it more common to have a 70% owner and 30% manager.

 

 

I charge 15% however I am not sure that is enough.  I now have 7 I manage and it is getting more difficult.  The biggest issue is letting them know when they have guest arriving.  I am looking for a calendar that will notify them when they have upcoming bookings.  Any suggestions?

Hi guys,

 

          I was curious to know how you guys found properties to manage as an airbnb. Is it usually just friends and word of mouth? I would love managing someone's property however I don't have the means to find a consenting owner just yet.
