But there's no sense in risking resentment from your wife when you have other alternatives available.  

This is a free alternative and Facebook already has a massive online presence that will help boost your page. 

Possibly a better alternative might be to get the property yourself, then have a Project Management company manage the rehab with solid contractors, get you weekly updates and multiple weekly inspections, so you can see the process happen.  

One alternative may be turnkey rentals, where property has been rehabbed, with property management and a quality renter already in place.

They can be a great alternative to traditional central Air in certain situations, and cheaper to operate, too.

I have a very strong deal in the works. 5 unit building with a retail storefront that I want to owner occupy with my other business. Professional inspection and walkthrough show about $15000 in repairs and replacement...

The lady's husband had died a few years earlier, and the lady used his truck as a trash receptacle.
