Hi BP

I have a couple of properties I manage down in Martha's Vineyard and my cleaner hasn't been doing a great job as of late so I'm looking for a backup. 

I reached out to a few cleaning companies already but they seem pretty high in price. I figure I reach out to the BP community to see if you guys have any suggestions. All help is appreciated. Thanks.

I have had good luck finding great cleaners for a great price on Craig's List.

Your results may vary.

I rented my home in Oak Bluffs last summer and the cleaners the property manager used were "Maid on MV cleaning service" worked well for me i would consider them if you need a backup in the future.

You can always go to homeless shelters or halfway houses and find someone.  Just because they are there it doesn't mean they are bad.  They are usually trying to better themselves.  Maybe the homeless shelters are not as desireable as halfway houses.  So maybe go with halfway houses and women's shelters.  I was the president of a service organization many years ago (Jaycees).  A womens shelter house needed help painting a house.  I emailed the whole group and we painted an entire 3 bedroom house in less than 30 minutes.  Paint and painting supplies were provided by Sherwin Williams.

I ended up getting a good referral but thanks @William Panek I'll definitely keep them in mind as a backup.

And that's a great idea @Paul Sandhu I never thought of doing that. I will try that in the future.
