Your personal loan has a 5 year balloon period.  

I let the booking expire and figured it was a troll.I then get another request from the same person about a month later for the same dates.

You could give them a thousand bad reviews, if they are the only person in town offering a specific type of product, people will still do business with them.

You could start with your agent or a local agent who supports investors and could have contacts to refer to you.Lastly, you could consider negotiating with a local PM to take on a hybrid approach to management.  

Never buy without personally inspecting and approving the property and INDEPENDENTLY, INDEPENDENTLY, INDEPENDENTLY, verifying everything from values to market rates, to approving tenant selection procedures and standards, to repairmen on standby, to everything else in Christendom that you can thing of.I am not a fan of out-of-state investing, especially for those with less than 50 years of experience, and for them, they’re probably too old for the hassle. 

Personally when buying rentals I tend to buy in neighborhoods that I feel like I wouldn't personally mind living in and when I look for tenants I try to look for people that not only pass my screening but also I personally don't dislike.  

It's an exciting journey that can offer both financial rewards and personal satisfaction.

I didn't realize it at the time but through my first few jobs I was fortunate to work alongside teams who were true real estate finance experts and learning through observation was critical to my personal real estate investing growth.
