No one will watch our money more carefully than us, and have usually had some sort of arrangement (or try to) similar to what you've proposed. 

How cool.Well, It's because I was seen as a player, a closer (meaning I close on deals I put under contract).I said, "I didn't know you owned a building" and to that he said "yes, it's the building with two - first floor retail spaces and 9 apartments on the corner".Dang, just what I love.

Could work, but remember people that need hard money usually need it for a reason.

Most townies looking to gawk would come to an open house and open houses are usually done only for houses in nice move-in condition.

The Property Manager usually does light cleaning and repairs between tenants.Recommendations or another way to think about this? 

For several reasons (property taxes, politics), I would prefer to begin real estate investing somewhere other than locally. 

In addition to this, I've had 2 clients this past year tell me they used Airdna in '22 and '23 to see projected and estimated income and was drastically different than actual income made with very comparable properties. 

They usually have a small upcharge on the work done but it's generally not a profit center for them. 

Why do they have to notify you if they will be gone for more than 24 hours?

You will want to interview at least a couple of realtors and determine what resources they have available for you in several arenas (lenders, contractors, more).
