Investing is a long term strategy for me, not so much a short term play.

So, you'd want to go into it knowing you were going to: go all out to beat your competition, have a distinctive property, stand out online, and have your return compensate you for the headache of running a little hospitality business.Does that help? 

Decide which game you want to play.

If it's a particularly infamous house on Seymour you may be able to set up an Airbnb for people who want to play out their kidnapping kinks.

Unfortunately, I don't think it's realistic that you will find a generic commercial lease online that checks all the compliance boxes for your state, city, and county.There are limited service property managers that will do retail tenant placement (rather than full property management, which it seems like would be overkill for this one commercial unit you manage), and this would be included as part of that basket of services.You could also hire a lawyer, but I think that property management company will be more cost effective. 

No one that has been at real estate for more than a couple years has had no losers, and when you lose your family's money, well sometimes those close knit families aren't nearly as close knit and you start getting people playing sides.

 @Chris SeveneyThe long-shot play I became aware of; Capital Improvement Project Funding that the city/county have allocated for projects that meet 2 criteria.Have a lifetime greater than 10 yearsCost more than $50,000I believe, even if the water and refuse collection run is only 1000 ft, that may not qualify but to do it "right", that two mile run would allow the entire subdivision to be supplied with services.

Since you mentioned investing out of state, I'm assuming you're asking about getting a partner online, or at least not a friend/acquaintance.

Do you believe online accounting services like 1800 Accountant are good for the owner of a Real Estate LLC?

I use Quickbooks online for the formal accounting so it's easy for my tax guy to get in there and do his piece every year, since I have an LLC per building.
