As travel resumes, professional vacation rental managers are committed to maintaining rigorous protocols to ensure the highest level of cleanliness and safety at each property. After surveying hundreds of professional vacation rental operators, we found that over 70% plan on independently inspecting every property before arrival. Managers who use digital checklists to capture in-the-field interactions with housekeeping, maintenance, and inspectors are able to build robust property profiles and unlock the full potential of property management services.
Based on data from more than one thousand inspection checklists from leading vacation rental managers and hospitality operators on Breezeway’s platform, and updated resources from the Center for Disease Control (CDC), the World Health Organization (WHO), and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), we have compiled this guide for the ‘New Inspection’ in the wake of COVID-19.
