There are plenty of options to think through, but I would recommend really nailing down what you want the most and then working backwards from there. 

@Steven Rago legally, whoever shows the property has to be a licensed agent.You can try to play games with that and have a handman allow "access", but it's a BIG risk.So that leaves agents & PMCs.You have two choices with agents:1) Pay per showing: since any agent can show a property, find the cheapest.2) Pay Listing Fee: typically 1 month of rent to put in MLS and place a lockbox so any/all agents can show.We do NOT recommend allowing agents to screen applicants - it's a conflict of interest!

I'd recommend using free trials from the softwares (Propstream, Batchleads, Property Radar, etc) and trying out the filters to see what would work best for you.

Need to vet your tenants carefully, would recommend a RE attorney to review your lease. 

You should start getting referrals for an attorney to help you organize the structure and language for your described arrangement.I would absolutely recommend the Investment LLC be 100% separate from the construction entity.
