Hidden Risks of DIY Cleaning
What the price tag doesn't tell you.
Burnout: cleaning after every guest gets old fast

No insurance: you are personally liable for cleaning-related damage
Missed details: tired eyes miss what a written checklist catches
Hard to grow: you cannot clean two properties at once
