I Bought An Apartment To Rent Out On Airbnb
<i>Find a great property manager / cleaner -- Without one of these doing this remotely would be impossible. I managed to find a great local cleaner on craigslist. She charges a flat fee of $200 per month which covers unlimited cleanings.</i><p>And she's probably illegal . . .  But even if she's not illegal, how can this "property manager" live with himself, taking advantage of people who don't "know" enough (whether of the language or minimum wage laws) to understand that they are being taken advantage of?  I was born in Vegas and have seen what that city has become -- if there's one thing in abundance there it's under-the-radar immigrants.<p>This post represents everything that is wrong with the property management and rental industry:<p><i>White man want easy money.  White man charge high rents. White man hire nice, busy ladies who no speak English to do hard work cleaning.  White man hire nice, fast men who no speak English to do hard work painting and carpet replacing.  White man take profit for himself and give teeny bit to people who no speak English because they no understand how hard it is to make easy money.</i><p>His cleaning lady is even laundering towels and sheets for $200 per month? How nice of her.<p><i>I have about 3 or 4 sets of sheets and towels. This way the cleaner doesn’t need to wash everything in the 3 hours between guest check in and check out. They can simply take all the dirty sheets and towels home, wash them, then next time they swing by the apartment have a clean set of everything ready to drop off.</i>
