I hired a window company to replace them and usually find that hiring specialists is more time consuming (when building your team) but typically results in faster project turn-around and better control over each aspect of the rehab. i.e. fire the ones that suck without impacting other subs.

But we have came across our first road block.This is what is happening 12/3/15 we hired an architect that was referred to us by a real estate agent (which we do not know or have ever done business with, we got his number from a sign realtors put up on properties he sells acre lots and offers to design your custom home as well, his sign was up in the community where we bought our acre) so we called him and he told us of the architect he works with and who has done the design for the majority of the homes there, well they are beautiful homes so we called him up and met with him on 12/3/15 at his home office.

This is possibly going to sound a bit harsh....You either need to hire a property manager or not be so emotionally tied to what tenants do or don't do.

It is well worth it to hire a professional for the first one and watch the process. 

As someone else mentioned, it's probably best to hire a lawyer to do it properly. it's fairly cheap compared to the fines for an unlawful eviction.You can still call animal control, though, and have them do a welfare check on the animals. 

If you are missing out on good tenants because showing times don't work for you, consider hiring someone to fill the units.

The best advice I can provide is to find/hire a good tax accountant who knows real estate well.    

Hire a property inspector for 40 bucks to take photos and have a inspector fill out a form that you create.  

I pulled my permits personally, if I hire someone to pull those, I pay around 3k, but they are just facilitating my permits and be my boots on the ground.
