Airbnb virtual assistant vs just paying a property manager 20 percent Six units. Guest messaging has taken over my evenings and I'm answering the same check in question forty times a month. Full management wants 20 percent which on my numbers is around 2,400 a month. An Airbnb virtual assistant doing inquiries, check in info, review responses and cleaner scheduling would run me maybe a third of that. Obviously the VA doesn't handle the physical side, but honestly my cleaners are solid and I don't need someone driving out there. Main thing I can't figure out is overnight. Guests message at 1am about lockboxes and they want an answer now. Does hiring someone in a different timezone actually solve that or do you just end up with a gap somewhere else in the day. How many units are people running per assistant before it falls apart?
