Our plan is to buy turn-key deals that will require minimal management.So long story short we plan to list the property for sale, as-is. 

Get a professional tenant and you could be in for death by a thousand cuts. 2) Not knowing your numbers - If you buy with the wrong numbers you can get in trouble quick. if you just assume that you buy for X rent for Y and pay Z in mortgage, insurance and taxes you will be in for a big suprise when things start breaking etc. turning your good investment into a money trap3) Related to number 2 and a fairly common one if you spend all your profits and don't reserve when suprises hit you will not have enough money to cover it4) Not keeping up the property - No one wants to live in a dump, a slum lord attracts slum lord tenants and this can eventually catch up to you5) Speculating  - This could go very well or very bad.

I'm contemplating the area of short-term rentals (thru Airbnb for example), as well as house flipping.

I would love to buy a multi unit property in the area but realize I am too short on time most likely.

Perhaps receiving a steady stream of income from the sale would be more attractive to her than one lump sum.

My dad was long as well pointing out things to the inspector and asking some good questions.Long story short the house has been added on 4 times.The attic didn't have nearly enough insulation and the inspector seemed very surprised at that. 

HelloQuick scenario is I got an off market property large enough to subdivide square footage wise however the lot is odd shaped so when I split the lots to meet the minimum widths the one lot falls short approximately 800 square feet.

I invested just short of $4,000 into a digitally controlled water softener w/ 250LB capacity brine tank, and a top of the line Iron Filter to match.

Seems that the house can rent between  $2,200 - $2,500Studio I am not sure...I'd probably do short term rental.

It happens (see above: stabilization) and the best thing for you to do would be to evict all of them and put your tenants in there.So, in short, maybe the PM is great maybe the PM is awful.
