@Jason Brown - I'm a CT based investor, flipper, and property management company owner.  

Quote from @Noah Laker: I'm a local broker and investor, and manage 100+ Airbnb properties for clients.

I always remind myself that it isn't personal and that I chose to sign up for exactly this kind of work (managing difficult tenants).

I’d love to learn more about how you operate in multiple markets and what strategies you’ve found most effective for managing properties remotely.Looking forward to staying connected!

You would have to self-manage though, as paying a property manager will eat up most of your profits.

My basic underwriting making some standard assumptions on HOA expenses, 20% down, 7% interest rate, 30 year mortgage, utilities, supplies, and maintenance costs shows a loss of about $22k per year if you are self managing.

Use a buyer's agent that knows the market, contracts, negotiations, etc.If you really want to learn about investing, get a job in property management. 

Meanwhile, I have 10 units management experience. 

Talk to property managers and see if they would manage the other units.

I also recommend you start looking for a professional property manager, at least until you educate yourself enough to run this solo.
