Outsourcing some tasks may help, too...I am pretty small scale by design --but lots of folks on BP own large portfolios and add rentals regularly (how many also have FT jobs in full families sort of goes to your prompt)...So they can chime in and some probably have a template for a part timer to add a few rentals every year--and keep sane!
