What are the best methods and products to tackle these tough cleaning tasks?

The larger wholesale outfits in my area always do double closings.

Having a larger building does seem like a better investment option if paired with partners. 

I do have a friend that has larger homes with 5+ bedrooms and she does well on VRBO and only uses that platform.

If you do a search on airbnb, you can see a few of larger homes (4 bedrooms+) are getting decent booking. 

We have mostly 2-4 unit buildings compared to the larger stuff but that 5-50 range can be a good space to find deals in. 

Perform the same task in each app to ensure a fair comparison.Load a property with pictures and details.Market that property.See what your marketing looks like from the public's perspective.Submit a fake application to see how easy the process is.Run a credit/screening report on yourself.Enter a maintenance request, assign a vendor, and attach a fake invoice.Enter charges to the tenant's ledger.Enter recurring charges and automatic late fees.Sign documents electronically.Run owner reports.After testing a few apps, one should clearly stand out.

Trying to get someone at the bank to make a decision is going to be a hard task.

This includes some amount of cash flow and then a larger payout once the property is sold or refinanced after X number of years.

We obviously handle the ones near us in-house, but hiring someone in another market to work one day a month is a bit of an odd task.My guess is that remote property management companies need to have a sort of Swiss-army-knife person in the area that can do many variable tasks for them and works on an hourly basis as there may not always be things to do, but I don't know that for a fact.How do remote/long-distance property management companies overcome the challenges of not being in the area?
