We are already surrounded on three sides by urban zoned homes.My neighbors and I have been approached by two individuals, one is a neighbor who is a real estate agent, and the other one a friend of a neighbor, who works with a real estate attorney; both individuals asked us to join them in working with the 5-6 developers they have approached.

For instance my 90 lot subdivision at one point I had 90 legal descriptions and parcels on one master deed.. as I sold them off we just deeded them out separately.. its super common especially in older platted cities were lots might have been small like 25 X 100 and someone bought 3 of them and then built one home on all three.. some places they force merge them others you can go back and recreate the Old lots of record.. there is millions upon millions made by those that know how to find shadow plats and bring to life underlying parcels.

Quote from @Karl Kauper: In my 20+ years as a landlord in three different states, it’s my experience that the owner can screen more effectively and find tenants way more quickly. 

It would be best if you had a timeframe in place for initial reports of uncleanliness or broken items, maybe three days, but the truth is that all complaints are relevant no matter the time.

In three months, you will have business, but too many people hire ghostwriters on LinkedIn and it's SO obvious it's not them.

Actually, it scares me a bit that you say the property is currently only being used about three weeks per year. 

I've had some bad experiences with property managers and your advice rings true.

Name doesn't ring a bell, but I searched our company contact records for Elliott Taylor.

I prefered two or three more years that I can work and save money to buy a house ( $300k) and car (30k) with cash.

We're now well into year two, and will be running into year three in January and I'm wondering at what point do I need to take action?
