My priorities before I became an agent, myself, was to ask if they invest or have investment experience as many agents are used to dealing with owner-occupied, which have different priorities from investors; if they have a problem writing offers for much less than asking price (some do, although they are supposed to submit all offers for their clients, even low ones); if they require exclusive buyer-broker as I won't sign one of those (I will sign for the specific properties they show me, but not exclusive); and what, if any, of their fees are as I've found some firms like to surprise you with weird administrative fees as a buyer once you've asked them to write an offer for you, which I find objectionable.  

An informal probate may take less time, however no interim powers are granted.Depending on the type probate, you may be able to purchase real estate during the course of administration prior to the final distribution.You must answer how big of a list you wish to work.

The lender is going to hold on to the money and use an administrator to give you draws as work is completed by a qualified contractor and verified by an inspector. 

We discourage receiving {partial} rent payments from individual housemates or third-parties (parents) and charge an extra administrative fee in those instances.

Petersburg, Florida and have a degree in Business Management/Administration from USFSP.

The '"name" of the LLC, i  had my rental property under was administratively dissolved .

You are correct to look for professional helpbut not only from a CPA but also an attorney preferably tax attorney familiarwith IRA’s etc.Your custodian/administrator should be able to give you a listof proposed CPAs/Attorneys that other clients use. 

Is that difference worth the headache of 3 tenants, unexpected maintenance costs, and administration/ paperwork of rental investment property?

This is most likely a cost prohibitive situation for most HOA, along with the administration and hassle.
