My cleaner asked for and gets $30 of that for the extra work.  

Personally, I'll invest in either or however after having block homes and wood frame rentals, I definitely prefer block. 

I've found my cleaners using Turno.

I let my cleaners clean how they know best. 

If you outsource, do you ask your cleaners/contractors to provide reports?

Our best suggestions for hiring cleaners are...(1) Find and hire experienced turnover cleaners with a verifiable history of consistently producing 5-star reviews for cleanliness (the only part of the review they can affect).(2)  Ask for referrals and call them. 

See if you can get your cleaners or handyman registered for this.Or create your own company to provide this service for others as well.

Too heavy for the cleaners to put back up on the screened back porch.They left the dock chairs on the dock not strapped down even thought we have signs at the dock to retire everything in case a storm comes through.I tell the cleaners there will be hard ones and easy ones.

Some investors will also hire a local co host or property manager who can handle setup, take deliveries, and oversee projects if you don’t want to be hands on.If you want to keep more control, you can also hire a designer just for the setup phase to get the property ready, then hand it off to your cleaner or PM.

In fact, that is literally why I decided to write the book: to set a standard for Co-Living.We do a lot of things to elevate the resident experience in our properties: community events, awesome common spaces, providing shared supplies, having a monthly cleaner, etc.This strategy is definitely a lot of management work, but it enabled me to build a portfolio that generates $10k/month in cash flow in only 2 years.
