Read 7L: The Seven Levels of Communication by Michael Maher.

Often times I put myself in the tenants shoes and communicate in a way to achieve a win win.

If you want a software to collect dues and assessments, provide reports to the board, communicate with members easily individually or en mass, I recommend Smart Property Systems.

Away for the buyer to have constant communications with the owner and real time updates with regards to their purchase, removing the agent and the real issues of communication delays and human error.. 

(Are you really great at design, or communication, or finding fresh deals)A bit of introspection can go a long way when starting this kind of business activity, I hope this gave you some insight and how you should approach this!

Ensure management knows the first and last name of the local staff sergeant for direct communication, should the need arise.Remember, buying and maintaining C/D properties in low- or no-income neighborhoods is not for the meek.

There is more hand holding, more communication, more cleaning, but it’s viable.

That is why proper team alignment of goals and communication is very important.

Would recommend hiring a project manager (someone you can trust and has experience) to handle all the direct communication with the contractor to keep it professional and take work and hours put in off your plate if that's what you're looking for. 

Whatever is important to you, be sure to communicate it to them.
