I am newbie here who has heard real estate is a great way to build long term wealth.I would like to get started but with a bad credit  history I find it extremely diffcult.Still the financial longevity well not only be statisfying but the peace as of mind will put me at ease.

Peace of mind and having been through the process a time or two with an expert will ease your mind and show you exactly how it's done.Best of luck!

Finally, what is the ease of collection for that neighborhood and will your tenant applicant pool have bank accounts that allow you to do online rent collection vs in person or mail-in checks?

My business partner had a deal within 2 weeks of deciding to be a REI, and learned on the fly, whereas I am the type to read, ask questions, and ease into it by knowing everything I possibly can first.

Remember, they don't have to go to the bank and qualify so they are willing to pay more for that privilege and ease.

have you found any techniques or ways to partner with landlords to help ease their concerns? 

My approach is:Carpet only (low profile) on the stairs, primarily for ease of installation and safety of residents,Leave Linoleum in place in kitchen and bathrooms since it is in good condition without teas or peel off,LVP in the rest of the house (bedrooms, hallways, living room, dining room, family room, totaling about 1,600 sq ft) for its semi waterproof qualities.

I could bring a strong positive presence to your business and help ease some of the workload.

As a landlord, Mitch C. brought up a good point about the ease of maintenance on electric. 

I hope they ease up soon because STR's are quite lucrative.
