(End)Unfortunately, HOAs are often ran by individuals who are not the most knowledgeable on regulations, accounting practices, and more - and property managers do not want to intervene for fear of losing the contract. 

I think I'll start out where I live and probably branch out outnof state once I build my knowledge and experience. 

In addition to Turbo Tenant, I would suggest that you have a local Realtor list it for rent. 

Contact the listing agents managing broker immediately and if you don’t get a satisfactory answer immediately contact your state and local real estate boards.

You could arrange to have your cleaners accept the deliveries at the property or hire a local handyman to do same and even assemble furniture.

Here is my list of the most dangerous real estate related investments for the “non professional” investor lacking direct knowledge  and experience in these investments 1.

Purchase price: $190,860 Cash invested: $198,000 I purchased a condo that had already been remodeled by another local flipper.

I'm not sure what market you are in but I'm knowledgeable on Columbus Ohio if you ever want to talk about build to rent. it's not purchasing new builds at full market price, it's building it 25% below market yourself 

@Darren Samson what kind of loan you can use is a question for a local lender. 

Start by attending real estate meetups, BiggerPockets forums, and local investor groups to connect with potential partners.
