Obviously flat fee or other arrangements could work, but you see my point.My experience with Financial Advisers is that they are mostly trying to sell insurance.

If you decide to go this route I think you may want to consider going to a whole bunch of meet ups and finding a few flippers who seem to do good quality work and work with them in a private lending arrangement.

Then YOU hire a licensed, insured, professional contractor to make the improvements so your tenant is safe.I suspect the tenant is renting below market which is why he's willing to put up with a substandard living arrangement.

If Resident does not maintain property to these standards, Property Manager will arrange a contractor to tend to the grounds and Resident(s) will be held responsible for the costs.

Depends on your PM/cleaning arrangement.

I'd recommend you first identify a local acquisitions manager, typically a real estate agent, who can help you arrange to identify, screen, evaluate, and inspect properties while you are out of state.

Perhaps we can arrange for your to visit one of my sites in the flesh sometime. 

Would I simply arrange it with my title company to work with a title company near the property?  

Unless you've specifically arranged otherwise. https://www.paylease.com/corp/blog/how-to-rub-your-residents/

We were contemplating on hiring a lawyer to draft new custom leases and will plan on using the firm for this as well.We will also communicate with the tenants to have them inform us of any water leaks and runny faucets.
