We have couple turnkeys, and couple of BRRRs that we did so far (all are single family residential properties with long-term tenants).We are interested in exploring commercial real estate, and wanted to get all of your help in getting started. 

Alternatively, I could explore hard money lenders.

I'll be exploring these options in parallel.

I’d be more than happy to hop on a call with you to discuss the different areas and explore how you might make it work.

If you’re open to exploring nearby markets, like northwest Georgia or north-central Alabama, you may have an easier time finding properties within your buy box.

@Dwight HenningRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

Explore furnishing it as a medium term rental maybe. 

One option might be to explore adding air purifiers or filters directly into the system to help mitigate odors.

Have you and your wife considered exploring fully turnkey properties as an option?
