Spring and fall, when events and favorable weather increase occupancy is typically the period when turnover demand is highest in Charleston. Book cleaning, linen, and maintenance partners 2–4 weeks ahead for peak-date checkouts, especially when you manage more than one home.
A standard turnover in Charleston commonly starts around $175–$350 for a small, well-kept property; larger homes, pet stays, deep cleans, and same-day resets cost more. Ask for a written scope that states bedrooms, baths, laundry, consumables, and inspection photos.
Professional listing shoots often range from $200–$600, with drone work, twilight photos, or video quoted separately.. Request pricing by home size and turnaround type, then confirm whether rush work, travel, supplies, or weekend calls are billed separately.
A useful package includes edited wide-angle images of each sellable space, exterior/context photos, and web-ready delivery rights. A provider should also flag damage, safety concerns, and missing inventory promptly, ideally with time-stamped photos.
