You'll need a realtor for the lease up, you'll need a background check service, I would place a Blue I Box so only realtor can access with a rental prequalified tenant. 

I live in the markets you are talking about a good friend lives full time just north of Blue ridge i'm over there all the time.

We decided to focus on time home buyers, which is typically a young couple with kids looking for; a good school district, a backyard, 3bed room two bath, home, two car garage, a basement, an updated kitchen and bathroom, all painted an interesting neutral color scheme.

I love all those neighborhoods you mentioned NW along the blue line - you can't go wrong long-term2.
