You're already thinking about long-term benefits, and it's great that you're bringing your contractor husband's expertise into the equation.To alleviate some of the stress, I recommend starting by focusing on quality properties in solid areas where you can add value.

However, professional remediation is essential for quality results, complete documentation, and assurance that the job meets industry standards.

In my experience, having them lso attracts a higher quality tenant.

You can use Quickbooks and have an account for each LLC (best quality/ease of use software, but most expensive) or WaveApps.As for CC it is somewhat personal decision.

Add another $20 a month for that.Add in HOA fees ($300 a month; shown in your link), Gas, electricity, high-speed internet, water, trash and snow removal. 

I didn't find any challenge finding quality tenants by posting on FB marketplace, roomster, roomies, basically all of the websites. 

Of course you have your own guys, so that saves you a lot in labor, as I’m assuming you’re getting decent quality for good prices paying them direct.

What if by the time I post there is almost nothing on the market in a comparable location of a comparable quality?

AirBnB has been a really good source of quality leads.

If you are on a tight budget, a high quality sheet vinyl is also decent.
