I rent mine "from a distance" I do my own advertising when it is vacant with my number, and screen the potential renters by phone. Then I have either my trusty friend or my parents show the house if the person is still interested-thus, saving me the trip back. They also have copies of the lease as well. I have 2 handyman who handle the repairs and bill me. If the renter calls me with a problem, I call the handyman.
You can rent thru a home management company, but they keep a percent of the rent.
