Its a lot less headache to file the insurance claim and get this taken care of. 

For the few years tenants have been there the interior of their unit looked well kept, so they seem to take care of it. 

private real estate syndications are another option to passive RE investing, but IMO require a lot more research before buying than REITs where you have a professional team managing under SEC regulations, with public accounting and filings.

Once renovations are complete, carefully screen tenants, set clear house rules, and consider furnishing the units with utilities included to attract reliable renters.

Best of luck, but again, I suggest hiring a professional. 

With that they may be able to recoup from their renters insurance (hopefully you require this)  If locks are damaged and the unit isn't secure you would need to take care of that right away.
