If your not working with a realtor, I would suggest collecting data from all the major sites, Trulia, Zillow, Realtor.com etc...

This would cover screening tenants, showing the property, collecting rent, handling service calls, setting up repairs, getting bids, etc. 

Maintenance calls, rent collection, tenant disputes, etc.. 

As general background, hedge funds are normally structured as follows:Management Company --> oversees and manages --> Fund (a collective investment vehicle).

I collect rent weekly, the expense can be very deep.Dwolla seems more affordable, but it is an online payment only.

Dallas county demands payment right after that particular property auction ends, while Grayson county allows you a couple of hours to pay after the auction so you can go collect your funds.  

As previous posters have alluded to, $10K-$15K would not be unreasonable to collect as a fee for your finding.

You can also collect all the names on the board and say you need their full name and DOB so you can do a background and criminal check on them, and you do have a right to know who is running the HOA board.

If you still have a buy and hold strategy then fix it, get a tenant in and collect your money.
