Offering an optional Housecleaning Fee to residents. $xx/mo. Outside service cleans resident's home or apt every other week. Started offering it thinking not everybody really wants to clean their own home but might be willing to pay for it to be done. Your thoughts?

Maybe in super high end markets. In my area, waste of effort. --50.32.xxx.xx

sure offer it - as long as it doesn't cost you anything. This might even be a small profit center for you.

Do I think you get many takers - nope. But it is available and that will give you edge over your competitors --24.101.xxx.xx

Bobby M,

This is an option available on my lease.

Whether they choose it or not we look good by simply offering it.

Offer it, as others said it’s an option others may not offer. I honestly don’t see many taking it though other than maybe A plus properties, and even then they probably already have their own house cleaner. --174.199.xx.xxx

I think you'd get more mileage from offering yard service. Keeps them out of the yard, keeps you from having city/neighbor complaints, and if yard always clean, neighbors are more accepting of your rental. --108.69.xxx.xxx

Agree totally. Already offering Yard service as an option. Results are exactly what you, Landlord of the Flies, describe. Starts as optional at move-in. Becomes required if yard not maintained. Nobody complained when it transitioned to required when they were not maintaining the yard! (I secretly think they were relieved to no longer need to take time to maintain the yard.) --67.164.xxx.xxx
