The real cost of a slow unit turnover (and how we fixed it)
The real cost of a slow unit turnover (and how we fixed it)
Last month we worked with a property manager overseeing 14 units across two buildings. One unit sat vacant for 11 days after a bad tenant move-out — pest issues from leftover food waste, and a deep clean that got pushed back twice because their old vendor was booked solid.
11 days vacant on a $1,400/month unit is about $513 in lost rent, not counting the extra leasing-agent hours spent re-showing a unit that wasn't ready.
Here's what we changed for their next turnover:
Fumigation and deep cleaning booked as one job, not two separate vendors coordinating schedules
Turnaround inside 48 hours of the booking request
No back-and-forth — book it, we handle it, unit's ready
That's the whole premise behind Crystal Clear Fumigation. We built a recurring plan specifically for landlords and property managers who need turnovers handled fast and consistently — not as an afterthought squeezed into a general cleaning company's schedule.
If slow turnovers are quietly costing you rent every month, this might be worth a look.
