The photos online won't be of much use to you as the photos where the money spend is at are in the basements, attics, and the exterior of the house, and every corner of those if that helps.

I have always wrote my own contracts using online templates and I have been asked to write an owner financing contract for someone else.

You can also check their reviews online at Google, Facebook, or Yelp.

Are you taking it online as a self study, or are you in a class with a teacher?

Quote from @Solane Mesfin: I also tried to cancel free membership and unable to do that online.

Not to mention, the right system will enable your tenants to pay rent online, have a tenant portal, and all the other features that both tenants and owners need this day and age. 

As @Ke Nan Wang said you have to hire an architect to make these decisions for you.On my projects I will compile like 5-10 inspiration photos based on projects I've done in the past, comps, and photos I find online, then I'll present those to the draftsman/architect.

In solar sales (door to door) the setters typically make about this same range.Most companies in the house flipping world seem to buy lists online or run basic skip traces of areas and send lists to VAs to setup calls with the owner of the company.   

I would do some online research into Realtors in your area to see if you can make a connection.As @Michael Dumler pointed out, wholesalers are going to be a more reliable source for consistent off-market properties with margin.

If I am self managing my portfolio, what do I need to check/confirm, and what easily available tools are at my disposal (online, other) to help me do this?
