Hi, I'm looking for a long-term partnership with a reliable, proactive local contractor / maintenance technician / handyperson for my 4-bedroom 3-bath vacation rental home located in Truckee.

  • Short Term Rental Permit Compliance: Ideally, you will be listed as my local emergency contact for the Town of Truckee, meaning you will physically respond to the property within 30 minutes in the rare event of a neighborhood nuisance complaint.
Requirements:
  • Must live or operate directly within 30 minutes of Truckee to guarantee quick response times and Short Term Rental city code compliance. Ability to access the house year-round.
