Real EstateProperty Management3MediumOwner$ implied

Self-managing a vacation rental from a distance without a way to handle minor maintenance issues (dead batteries, broken coffee maker) that arise between guest stays.

No budget for a full-time property manager, but the owner needs a system to handle small, ad-hoc repairs and replacements remotely without being physically present.

Pre-vetted local handyman network with transparent pricing
Photo and video upload for remote assessment
Integration with cleaners and other recurring vendors for coordinated visits

Target Users: Self-managing vacation rental owners with properties far from their primary residence, especially in beach or resort areas.

Revenue Model: $5 per service request + optional $19/mo subscription for priority dispatching and vendor management
