I will check out some of your suggested resources. 

Check out the Reno, NV area.

Thanks Check out this article on BP published on this exact topic - the "5-10 Unit Multifamily Niche" has some very specific financing options - including, the Multifamily "DSCR Loans" that @Brian Cauldwell mentioned - these look like SFR loans (no tax returns, 30-year fixed, Rent/PITIA to calc DSCR etc.) but are for slightly bigger propertieshttps://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/multifamily-dscr-loans

As a guest, if I have to stress that there’s not enough TP, or I have to waste my time making beds (or stripping them along with a list of other ridiculous checkout chores) I might as well have just stayed in a hotel.

You may have already purchased QBO or are midway through using it, but if you're still researching, check out Baselane before you decide. 

And....does anyone know of a great property manager in Baltimore we can check out?

Hey Michael, I am a property manager up here in Clarksville, TN (check out our market if you have not already).

I’ll certainly check out that podcast and see what wisdom I can glean from those folks. 

I just saw this - you guys should check out the landlord resources tab on Bigger Pockets - it's under tools and then services!

Another resource that you may want to check out is the Rookie Bootcamp. https://get.biggerpockets.com/...
