        "text": "Hiring a property manager for a short-term rental can be beneficial, especially for investors who live out of the area, have multiple properties, or prefer a hands-off approach. Property managers handle bookings, guest communication, cleaning coordination, maintenance, and marketing. A Practical Tradeoff is that while they charge a fee (typically 15-30% of gross revenue), they can optimize pricing, improve occupancy, and ensure compliance with local ordinances, potentially increasing overall profitability and reducing investor stress. This decision depends on your time availability and desired involvement.",
