Then i spend the rest of my day getting materials and making sure my employees are performing per job specs and getting things done the right way the first time.

Which is excellent performance imho for properties in the 100k and under range.

What you do there is once a week, or twice a month, or whatever, you write yourself a check from the company bank account to you,the company employee, and if you don't have the funds in the business bank account to cover that check, then you stick it in a drawer, and you cash it or deposit it to your personal account when your business account does have the funds available.You can set your 'salary' as low as minimum wage, and then just give yourself 'performance bonus' checks quarterly, again, with the appropriate payroll taxes applied, for any overages over your 'wage.'

You could buy the software and have them code the macro that performs the scraping so you could run it when you wanted.

Also you get to keep your performing rental while invested in a performing note. 

I do my own leasing and screen tenants.Unlike stocks, a tenant's past performance is a guarantee of future results.

Whatever you do make certain that whoever you partner with will either guaranty you a return of "x" in some way or they have a financial incentive to perform.

I am talking markets with yield not crazy 4 or 5 cap type stuff that even with a minor contraction you will lose value.I think an 8 to 9 cap is reasonable depending on area and location for a fully performing property.
