I lived in it and decided to sell it a few years later and was able to make a profit.

Most AirBNB hosts manage their own property to keep costs down and their profits up but I do see (at least in our area) that some owners are gone during certain times of year and having someone local to do the day-to-day stuff helps.

You will find high single digit ROI but when you are ready to sell the property then thats where the profit will show itself.

YesAre your investors expecting profits?

I am in need of experience investor who is willing to work with me on this deal and possibly help with some of the cost, in exchange for percentage of the profit.

They simply did not pass the requirements you set forth.  

Contact some local investors and property managers and pick their brain to see what strategies and price points are profitable so by the time you are financially able to make a move, you will hopefully already have a few properties to pull the trigger on

I simply do not understand why people are so hesitant.Get a website!

You should be able to simply push up on one side and remove them by hand. 

Once they did, it was not an issue.This is so bothersome, that I know many landlords that simply keep sewer in their name.
