I've used other info from other places for lease options, owner financing, et.cI have found that many sellers are not interested in you assigning the property to someone else mid-escrow, etc. 

The thing holding them back from signing the lease is an opening between the two bedrooms (they want it walled off).

Would you make the roommates sign a lease?

The previous owner never had leases drawn up, so they tenents are on month to month.I'm currently getting the other 2 units ready for section 8.

Or are you talking about unit walk throughs, checking roofs, foundation, plumbing, mechanicals, lease audits, etc?

It is completely free for the first property and includes listing, applications, digital leasing, online rent collection, and maintenance tracking. 

I might pick up a large enough parcel to lease out to sportsmen if a deep discount fell in my lap.

Higher end rent would require some repairs and rehab.Capex $285Maintenance $285Vacancy $190Insurance $110Water & Sewer $85Taxes $1042 ($12,500 per year).Structure of the property is in decent condition, no current leaks or issues found.Two leases are month to month as of this month, the one bedroom has a lease until august.Gas, heat, and electricity are all paid by the tenants individually.

I prefer to have 1 LLC per property and a management LLC ( that I also own)  recive all the rents ( and lease to the tenants) from each LLC.

Transparency is key, not all landlords are comfortable with this arrangement but many see the advantages of working with professionals who are able to maintain the properties at higher standards than with long term leases.
