My mom is 86 and would like some help with 13 hours/wk of basic home maintenance and driving in exchange for part of the rent. Some items she's identified are: Bathrooms cleaned 1 x week = 30 min a week 2 hours a month Floors 1x week 30 min week = 2 hours a month Laundry 1x week 30 min week = 2 hours a month Cooking 2 hours/wk = 4 hours a month Gardening one hour wk = 4 hours a month.

Our system with the current tenant has been working well: regularly scheduled work shifts with completed hours noted in a notebook; driving is 'paid' (deducted from rent) at a rate of $20/hour when driving mom's car, cleaning and other work is reimbursed through trade at $25/hour. Current tenant ends up paying about $200/mo in cash presently. My mom's need for assistance varies a bit each month -- some months you may end up paying more, some months less. Prior tenant loved this location for access to all things mountain, as well as quiet work-from-home retreat. He was kind enough to snap some photos, (while moving so you'll see more stuff in those rooms than is actually there)!
