Are their listings detailed with good-quality photos?

The shed roof cabin will be longer than the photo depicts.  

Full details on the project are available including project description & costs, 3-year income/expense spreadsheet & photos. 

FWIW, looking at inflation adjusted pricing doesn't make sense since debt is set in nominal dollars.  

Aim for 15% of purchase price in yearly revenue6) if you don't purchase turn-key, come up with a furnishing plan7) get pro-photos, find a good cleaner, either via Turno or preferably by talking to locals8) a lot of youtube videos will overcomplicate the start (launch of 5 platforms, build a direct booking site, get the worlds best smart lock, automate all sorts of messages, connect to dynamic pricing, etc.)  

Was going to handwrite letters to property owners in my immediate area and maybe include a photo of my wife and I.Can anyone give me any suggestions on best practices?

The holding period of 60 days is also likely too quick--it's counted from the time of purchase to the closing date when you sell it, so I would plan on at least 90 days since you need to completely finish the renovations, take photos, list and market the property, get under contract and then another 20+ days to close (if it doesn't fall through during inspections etc). 

I never meet them.I hire them directly and I get photo confirmation the job is done.

The photo below is a closet.
