 Where should I get the paper work online?  You will need a contract/lease agreement. My advice would be to get a real estate lawyer to create one or use the HAR template and create one your self. For you first house you may want to use the HAR option but sooner or later you want your own contract and the contact of a lawyer to make sure you are protected.  

 Best place for screening ? https://biggerpockets.mysmartmove.com/

 Best place to list the home ? postlets.com and Craigslist 

 Any advice will help!!!! 

 You should create cheatsheet with all websites and processes corresponding to templates. You need to create a small system so in the end it does not matter if you have one house or few houses. This may take some time, don not expect to know everything from the start, just make sure any new information or template/form is save for use at a later time.  For example,  Posting a property for rent: use postlets.com and cragslist ( include account information here for each website, I keep all passwords in KeepPassX ) Location on your computer/storage device of the template for the add. Do not make adds every time have a template with all requirements, descriptions and pictures. Make sure not to include rent price in your template, rent will change year to year. 

Here are couple nice articles that will help you on the way:

Also make sure to setup online payment for your rental. This makes life so easy ( erentpayment.com ).

Go to a realtor so it could be listed in the MLS.
