Another option is to rent it out, take out a cash-out DSCR loan, and invest the cash in another investment.

This will help you understand your options and decide if it's the right time to hire a pro. 

Its a whole different caliber of contractor you deal with in new construction (typically).

Seller financing, subject-to deals (taking over the seller’s mortgage), or lease options can create terms that work for both parties.

Tools like Lodgify or Hostaway make it simple to integrate booking and payment options.

We have much more robust capabilities in MLS that typically in most areas aren't available to the general public. 

However, I don’t yet have the funds for a down payment on another house, and I’m trying to figure out the best option for where to live while I rent the apartment.Do you have any recommendations for managing this transition or tips on finding a temporary place to stay?

I say that because every decent legit place I know of in market, yes offers the option of doing just tenant placement, for self-managing. 

What about the utilities, property taxes, maintenance and repairs, capex, etc. are any of those optional for you?

@Michael Klinger  As others posted, SoFi and Discover personal loans are good options and I've used them in the past.  2-3 business days from application to funds in my checking account.
