Having a good handyman and cleaners are essential. I’m blessed that my cleaner is my handyman and lawn & garden guy, so I keep him on retainer. He’s on call for minor emergencies with plumbing and things not working and I pay him a bonus fee from those unpredictable moments. So far I’ve had very few challenges (3 years renting my upstairs apartment.) Would your mom have any involvement in running the listing and what are her people skills like or would you take that over/outsource to a PM?
