Mildred — Week of June 17, 2026

Welcome back! This is what I need and would like done this week. Start with what you can — and on anything you're not sure how to do, just ask me and we'll figure it out together.

🔴 Do first — this week

9332 — Daneka checks in TODAY (Wed Jun 17) · give her a heads-up on the door TODAY
The rest of the house is in good shape — the one thing is the entry door. The main ask: let Daneka know about the door in a friendly way so she's not surprised (I'll give you a message you can send her). If you have a handyman you can send to look at it, great — but it's not an emergency, so don't stress it. Just make sure the guest is informed.
Pool service — recurring billing was canceled on BOTH homes VERIFY
Eagle's Eye Pool Service canceled the recurring QuickBooks payment on 9312 and 9332 (~Jun 12). Please confirm pool service is still running and re-establish billing (or a new arrangement) so it doesn't lapse mid-summer.

What you own this week OWN

  • STR guest pipeline (9312 / 9332). Upcoming: Daneka (in today, 9332, → Jun 21) · Payne (9312, Jun 25–29) — asked about early check-in (~noon); NOT confirmed, not paid — leave it open until Sam says · Deztany (9332, Jul 7–21, 15 guests) · Jermisheia (Jul 16). Keep check-in coordination + cleaner/turnover aligned to each changeover. For Daneka specifically: register her guests + issue the gate QR passes (you already know this one).
  • Cleaner is now Natalie (going forward, replacing the prior cleaner). Coordinate with her in the WhatsApp Business chat — I had a call with her and her daughter yesterday. Natalie speaks Portuguese; her daughter translates to English, so route through the daughter when needed. You should see our conversation in the WhatsApp Business already.
  • Airbnb pet settings — double-check both listings. A guest noticed the two listings read differently on pets. Here's the real policy: Airbnb won't let me fully exclude pets (service animals must be allowed), so my deterrent is a high per-pet cleaning fee — I don't really want pets, but since I can't say zero, I price it high. Please open both 9312 & 9332 settings and confirm they match each other: service animals allowed (as Airbnb requires) + the high per-pet cleaning fee in place + consistent wording. Then a guest asking gets one clear answer.
  • STR reimbursement cadence. Any vendor bills paid on behalf of 9312 / 9332 → log → Zelle reimbursement → reconcile (ongoing weekly).
  • Smart-device list (all three homes) for Nathan — continue compiling room by room.

How I want things handled — new this week

  • 💳 Preserve cash — pay by credit card wherever a vendor accepts it. My priority right now is keeping as much cash as possible in the STR accounts, so even if a card costs a small processing fee, use the card. Only use Zelle/bank when a vendor requires it — the cleaners (Natalie) are Zelle-only, so those stay on Zelle. When unsure, default to card.
  • 🧺 Linen & towel count (both homes). I want a full count of linens + towels at 9312 and 9332 so each home has enough complete sets — plus extras — to do proper back-to-back turnovers. (At 9312, Natalie washed the towels but didn't set them all out across the home.) I may come down Sunday to do this count with Natalie in person; I'll confirm timing. Natalie does laundry in-home when there's time between bookings, and takes some home when it's back-to-back — the goal is enough sets so it's always covered.
  • 🔧 Vendors to line up — handyman + pest control. These are the last pieces to round out the management. Natalie gave me some numbers (likely in the WhatsApp Business chat), plus any other vendor contacts she has. Help me gather + organize these.
  • 🏠 Hospitable.com — I'm looking into setting up Hospitable (an STR management platform) and getting you connected to it, so booking/turnover/messaging lives in one place for both of us. More soon.

Flag & remind me — don't action FLAG

  • HOA / Orlando Law (9312 & 9332) — there's a deadline around June 19. Just remind me; our attorney (Asher) is handling it directly.
  • Zell & Ettinger CPAs — past-due statement to Passover Ventures (2021–2024 tax prep). Flag for my decision; no action needed from you.
  • Bank/Plaid connection closing in ~20 days — flag so our balance data doesn't go stale.

Carry-over from last week

  • Citi AAdvantage statement — waiting on login/details from me to review. I'll get those to you.
Your weekly rollup stays the consolidation point — STR + vendors + obligations + open loops, into one update back to me. Thank you, Mildred.
