There are a plethora of short-term rentals that do not provide anything other than a furnished residence with utilities and a cleaning after departure
I know a number of STR owners around here, mostly with beach front properties. I'm also a member of an STR group on FB. There's actually a few that think that "they personally" have to provide the recurring services to qualify as a SCH C business. They don't realize/understand that if they contract those services out, they are "in fact" providing the services. Nothing I find actually says the owner has to "perform" the service - just provide it. 🙂
