I think to accomplish my goals on this one I am going to have to 1)keep trucking along slowly now that I'm back at full health 2)find someone to "buy-in" with equity on this property as a return or 3)sell it 

I made some money selling items, but in the end had a LOT of things to deal with. 2 30 yard dumpsters, 2-3 dump runs filling a truck, and now have a couple tables, dressers, couch and such littering my storage trailer and at my house.

Pay arrears only when vacant or she is at the end of drive with full moving truck.

Take a dump truck, load it with horse manure, and drop it off on the front yard.Guarantee you won't hear any more dead rodent smell complaints!

It's useless to hire a pest control company (or spray yourself) if you've got a tenant who leaves food and garbage out that continues to attract roaches. 

In a very hot market like mine there are truck loads of realtors looking at EVERYTHING that hits the market.

I've asked about the number of jobs he's doing/done and have seen his trucks driving around my local area.Then, I checked his references.

My profession is a truck driver traveling thru all 48 states so this makes me say I can invest anywhere and have a property manager run it.

Tons of great food.

That newer asphalt, or when it is resealed or newly striped, looks pretty sharp (but then you have some costs and maintenance), but I am not sure the attractive lot would bring much more in rent nor would gravel drive off good tenants.Finally, I shovel snow with the body sled type shovels and it would knock me out without a smooth surface underneath like asphalt or cement, so with gravel maybe check how that would work with your snow removal system (be it shovel, snowblower, or plow truck)...probably gravel best fit for plow truck...Best of luck
