Some states are very clear that the buyer can have access for specific essential inspection purposes (measuring for furniture not being essential) and others are wide open and allow the buyer access for anything with proper notice to the seller.

Gifting is legal, but has to be properly declared to the IRS. 

Take ownership of your mistake and learn to do the proper due diligence recommended above😊

Maybe anonymity benefit if you setup the LLC properly.  

Up until now they have been model tenants that were properly screened.

@Wayne Brooks, well for one I think that it is not being properly managed, as mentioned there are several foreclosures on the properties within the HOA. 

If they don't corporate then you need to get a judgement and start proper collection procedures.  

In Houston proper, I got good returns from a SFH in Independence Heights, but also felt like I needed my AK any time I went to check on the property, so YMMV.
