More work with more risk but can get you going if limited funds until growing into bigger deals.I am still on this site but stay very busy so not on here as much. 

You can work limited hours in so many different capacities that you want to keep that for longer than you think to keep supplementing more options.

Keep in mind the following: 1) If you don't have enough cash for the entire purchase in the TSP rollover to IRA, your financing options would be limited to a non-recourse loan.

In my limited exposure to using PMs in Memphis (I self-manage), most had a scale of upcharge depending on the cost of the service. 

I brought my nephew with me for about 12 of my trips last year and I am much more limited this year, but I have been pretty much running the shadow management(managing the PMs as my co-assistant with another gal) on about 3 of our STRs and 2 of our LTRs so he has his hands full.

There may be a few who may make smart azz comments about this, but they have no clue, this is a very serious side of finance.You need enough to enforce collections, pay for an attorney to foreclose, fees are often limited by law for a trustee to 10%, so a 60K note could be 6K to the trustee and there are other costs.
