@Jon Crosby is spot on with his systems as well though I would recommend Nest Outdoor cams even though they are a bit pricier.  

We also use nest thermostats and outdoor cam to monitor.

:) I like it we’ll call it Slumloard Reconnaissance Stealth Bird House CAMs.

I am going to use a 1080dpi HD web cam.

Cam,The issue here is your involvement.

Another issue which I may be overlooking,  I am the HOA President and our HOA has a security Cam to cover the parking lot and the DVR is plugged into a router the HOA pays for located in the upstairs closet.

I also have purchased all the data from my county assessor in a spreadsheet, which allows me to more easily search by name, and then automatically see all the pertinent details of the home to see if I cam interested in mailing them.

I plan on handling everything remotely and wanted to get some input on products you guys might use such as keyless entry locks, security cams and wireless thermostats etc.Any suggestions would be wonderful!

maybe personal experience can come into play and help you manage and survive these type of markets, but I have been doing it for years with TONS of experience (learned my TENANTS lessons back in the day in some tough California markets ...) and in the end of the day - like @jay @Jay Hinrichs said it is not exact science .. and you also need some LUCK...the rpoeprties I have got from ABC are well managed , I cam defiently say that, money is coming in.... again - never met with @Jay Walsh and I do not know him... but I think this thread is not doing him justice, from what I know - ABC runs couple of thousands properties in very tough markets, I believe it is very hard to satisfy 100% of their clientele..
