Property Managers & Short-Term Rental Owners: What’s Your Biggest Challenge with Post-Checkout Inspections?

Hi my name is Moses, I'm curious about anyone's experiences managing short-term rental properties (Airbnb, VRBO, etc.) or a large portfolio of properties. With the constant turnover, how do you currently handle post-checkout inspections? I’m hearing that many of you are forced into expensive, last-minute solutions or rely on manual processes that just don't scale with a hug inventory.

• What are the main pain points you face when trying to verify the condition of a property after a guest leaves?
• How do you manage scheduling inspections, especially during peak turnover times?
• Have you experienced issues with delayed or inconsistent inspections that have led to maintenance disputes or negative guest reviews?
• If you could change one thing about your current property inspection process, what would it be?
