Got on the distribution list from a few local wholesaling companies... 

I have 2 other prospected properties that I also wanna turn into hubs.. and I'm starting a property management company to manage the tenants and I'll be marketing the hubs daily..

I believe with one that was 2 hours away I would at least think long and hard about some sort of property management company even if it was a hybrid solution.

Q2: Would it be better to hire a property management company to manage the house since we will be moving out of state?

Also, don't forget a good STR company wants to succeed as much as the owner.

As I see it I'm betting on the housing market, rental market, YoY tax increases, and insurance companies.

Who does these (not looking for specific companies), is it accountants, lawyers, agents, and/or contractors? 

I'm on the lookout for investor-friendly title companies and lawyers.

@Max RievesMaxThere are numerous loan products out there for LLC owned properties. 

As a result the contract outlining the agreement is (1) full off contingencies allowing buyers numerous opportunity to “back out” of an agreed to transaction and (2) supported by a relatively small (sometimes VERY small) amount of “earnest money” which is usually refundable given the contract contingencies previously alluded to.The result is (1) a large number of contracts “falling out” prior to closing, (2) a relatively long “due diligence” period of time between initial contact agreement and closing, (3) renegotiation (or attempted renegotiation) of price and terms by the buyer And, or (4) utilization of the contract as an “option” by some “buyers” who have no intention to complete the purchase UNLESS they are able to find someone to pay a higher price.Interestingly, in some countries, such as Argentina, for example, due diligence is performed BEFORE a contract is negotiated.  40% - 50% of the purchase price is due at signing of the initial contract (what we refer to as earnest money); it’s only refundable IF the seller is unable to deliver clear title, and closings happen as quickly as the buyer can come up with the additional funds.
