I have been considering Hemlane. What are the tools or people you need to manage our of state. For ex: Marketing for tenants, Screening tenant, Showing Property, leasing, making sure documents are in place, handling service request, moving out, Repairs and repeat, take pictures for sale or rent.

I've found that the key to success out of state, or greater than an hour away is a great property manager. All of the things you mentioned above fits squarely in their wheelhouse. The properties we owned the longest were all out of state and it was because we had a property manager taking care of all these things, keeping the urgency stress out of our hair.
Prospective tenants reschedule showings, things break, contractors no-show. Yes, you pay for the assistance, but the peace of mind of knowing that it's being taken care of is absolutely worth it.
Good luck!
