You may want to try another PM or Realtor, or you can try these free or less expensive methods:-#1 tell everyone you know that you have a place to rent.

The "best" marketing method is what works for you and makes you money.

If your bank doesn't provide a scanning service, then this method could be a nightmare ;-)Chris MartinI, I originally opened a separate account for each tenant.

My guess is after fixing, in this type of investment method, the buyer will refinance  and pays the owner back. 

Each method has advantages and disadvantages, but the more appropriate people for you to talk to  are your 'partner' and an attorney within the jurisdiction of the property.

If you really want passive REI exposure, there are better methods ... private placements, syndications, hard money lending through a licensed broker or fund, crowdfunding, REITs, etc. would all be better options for you in that case, and at least you would be more diversified, which is VERY important IF you are going to give up control, which you will need to do in order to achieve the passivity in the investment that you seem to seek.

The one thing you should consider is the availability of owner financing or other creative financing methods.
