I am new to the Real Estate business, in fact it's still just dream that I hope to make reality in the near future.

To avoid that I suggested that they can make rent payments through direct bank deposit, which they are okay with.Tenant said they can either do a wire transfer or ACH transfer.Are there any downsides to giving the bank account # and having them make rent payments directly?

It takes a long time to see results in this business, which is why 95% of the people in your shoes will quit before they make real progress towards their goals.

We did a very nice total remodel and it is stocked very well- i.e more than 4 forks etc and tenants really appreciate it... coffee maker, spices, quality cookware, bikes, beach accessories.

In homes i've worked with in the past I usually skip trace the next of kin, then give them a ring to see if they can get all the decision makers for the property on board to have a conversation with me! 

I'll hope my tenants can make rent and can use my reserve funds for a month or two if I need to.
