What about lawn care?

Even people who do not care quite as much as others still in fact do care.

If the 10% would dig into your returns more than you're comfortable with, go ahead and manage yourself to get the experience, but have the knowledge that this property may always be one that requires your direct attention.

All I care about is my credit score, and know this place could go to auction soon. 

Just be careful what you say about the lawyer to others, as you don't want to be accused of defamation.

Take care.

Some are a pleasure to work with and others I do not care what the potential is working with them I will pass.Anyone that adds tons of stress to my life or ultra difficult to deal with I don't need.

For example, "have a house, car, take care of family, time/money to take vacations, etc" are all the "why" for average Joe. 

If your lender requires a security interest in the fee, the title company can agree to take care of all of this and then record the DoT after the fee and leasehold interests have been merged.

All depends on the terms ($15k spread out over 20-30 years at low interest is like $50 per month)  If it doesn’t affect the CF much, then who cares- it’s still a deal!
