@Kyle BrownRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder, etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

Hi,Currently Looking NYC(Bronx) or In tampa FL, I wanted to ask if anyone know of anyone who's willing to do lease to own or owner finance deal?

We form the LLC with me and my wife as members, then transfer the properties (they do have mortgages, so maybe lenders will have less of an issue if the LLC has members that are same as the current owners), then assign the LLC to the trust2.

You may also want to present a detailed breakdown of the property's current condition and any factors that might affect its value negatively.Explore Tax Relief Programs: While you mentioned that you don't qualify for tax breaks as the property is not your primary residence and you're under 65, it's worth investigating if there are any other tax relief programs or exemptions available in your area.

I'm wondering what is the current average cost, and seeking recommendations/advice.Ty 

I dont think the current prices will be very much higher.
