Just another perspective, I work for a developer that does their rehabs with integrity, and specifically with the goal of holding onto properties long term and minimizing maintenance costs.

What is the integrity of the houses' systems and when will they need to be replaced (capital expenditures)?

Con: They reduce my monthly cash flow (6 - 10%)Manage it myself:Pro: My cash flow is increased (at expense of time)Pro: Online tools make it easier for me to remotely manageCon: Time-consuming, especially during the leasing processHow to find a good property manager / leasing agentI go online and get reviews and quotes (Yelp, Thumbtack)I ask for 3 referrals or reach out to those people (note: I also ask tenants, since I want to make sure my tenants are happy and treated well)I ask what online tools and processes they use (for example, if they don't have an option to collect rent online ... then they seem pretty inefficient to me) I ask about transparency -- will they provide me with the background check, lease agreements, etc.?

I just researched online for whats required for my states leases and added those provisions onto the lease that Brandon provides.I am NOT a lawyer

You can get all the paperwork online. 

Not sure if this is the correct forum for this topic, but I am wanting to get my real estate license and was wondering if anyone could make any recommendations for online courses? 

Most standard realtor PSAs can be found online.  

You may be able to offer cash for keys.Don't forget that the starting prices in online auctions are usually artificially low to attract bidders.
