Cleaner/boots on the ground

[Tarek Soliman]

How was your experience in vetting Cleaners and finding someone reliable when it comes to communication and also offering a good cleaning service to your place?

I am having challenges finding the right cleaner in my city. The only ones I found so far was through Taskrabbit and they're not really what I'm looking for because of the price range and communication isn't as expected!

I want to build relationship with someone who would always be available in case of an emergency or doing some extra chores

Finding a reliable cleaner takes some trial and error. I have had better success through local Facebook community groups, investor groups and referrals from other landlords rather than platforms like Taskrabbit. I usually start with a paid trial clean, set clear expectations in writing and see how they perform before committing long term.
