If another offer is accepted, monitor listing until sold to see if it goes back on market8c.

I watch Craigslist and Zillow to monitor rates.

Anyways, just monitoring to see where this goes....

(1) A building inspector who has 32 inspections on his/her list for that day, and has budgeted 5 minutes on your jobsite, or (b) someone you are paying who can spend a couple of hours once every couple of weeks, monitoring the work?

We give the PM general direction and monitor their performance. 

I recommend against allowing tenant OR subsidized programs to deposit directly to your bank account, unless you establish an additional "sweep" account which you monitor daily to transfer deposited funds out to your "regular" operating or client trust account.Your real estate agent can likely provide you a State RE Board approved Rental Agreement that will cover a broad spectrum of issues.

Would be very easy for maintenance, projects, monitoring, etc. 

I ran into the same issues that you did… self managing is great, but you need help in order to scale and grow your businessSo now I’ve got people offshore managing my properties at a very high quality for a fraction of the cost, something worth considering.Mine can set door codes, message (or call) guests, schedule cleaners, adjust the thermostat, monitor my cameras, & call a plumber just as easily as a local PM can, for 1% of the costThey handle everything themselves and rarely need to get me involved in anything, it is the perfect hands off low cost operationI wrote much more about leveraging offshore assistants in this post here.

As a realtor, I have been monitoring the grey era and it still seems to be going strong for now. 

I agree with others: wait a few weeks and have them closely monitor when the smell is noticed and how strong.
