@Michael Tompkins suggest you start networking with local real estate agents to offer your services to make repairs on their listing transactions. 

@Peyton LaBarbera, I suggest being more specific.

There seems to be so much going on there and the environment is similar to San Diego (similar types of houses, wonderful Hispanic influences).

Any answers to these questions and any suggestions about how you would set up your business in this scenario to maximize the offset to your regular individual income from another source would be appreciated.

I'd suggest hiring an accountant.

First, as everyone else suggested in this thread, don't even try to explain a double close to a title co who doesn't already know what it is.

Selling seems right but i took depreciation on the property, so im wondering the best strategy here 

You've been handling things professionally, but maybe it's time to set some boundaries, as others have suggested.

So I think my best bet to start off with is to find a property management company.That said, I’m wondering if anyone has tips on property management companies they would recommend, and/or any tips on how to find the best property management.

If it isn't worth the $300 / hr to you than you probably don't need an llc and just get good insurance as suggested above.
