Managing STR in Tybee Island, GA Area

Posted

Hi to all of my helpful and motivated BP team members. I am creating a plan to remotely manage a small 1 bed 1 ba in Tybee Island. The unit is hardly 500 sq ft. I am located in Charlotte and this is going to be my first experience with STR. I don't want to incur the management fee expense at least for the initial few months. Thus trying to figure out how can this be done in the least expensive and most effective way possible. I am planning to use technology for managing the entry/exit of guests with digital door locks and door Cameras. Need help with finding a reliable cleaning company which does the cleaning/restocking, and some kind of hands/eyes on the ground which can just go there and take care of things in case of emergency, for example, the door is not opening for guests or the door is left open or something like that. I don't want to pay a flat 20% to a management company. Thus some sort of contacts in Tybee that can help me with Adhoc stuff.

Any advice on how to manage this remotely will be truly truly appreciated.

Thanks & Regards,

Lakhan

Hey Lakhan! Two Maids and a Mop cleans my friend's STR Airbnb on Tybee Island and have done a fantastic job. I also live in this area if you ever need help with your property. PM me if I can be of any help for you!
