@Hector Haro spend some money and get Appfolio.

Explore my personal favorites, Set For Life by Scott Trench or The Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsey, for invaluable financial insights.3.

Neither of those pencil out.I think you'd be wise to save the money and find your own leads.

Most if not all of these properties require SIGNIFICANT cap ex rehabs and conventional financing won't touch them; you'd likely need to go the hard money route at 10-12%, 2 points, 12-18mon turn around.

They marked it down as a "claim," even though the delivery guy never filed suit, asked for money, or sent a demand letter. 

Your time is worth money, it's time that guests aren't renting your house. 

It's just going to cost you quite a bit of money to have your accountant prep all of them.

@Yooni Choi managing from out of state (OOS) with ZERO previous landlord experience - probably won't go well.You WILL make a lot of mistakes that will cost you money.

You'll still have plenty of money to do a duplex/quadplex and give you breathing room (what would you do if you needed a large repair on the rental?).

Could these waits be mitigated by going the hard/private money route?
