I'd recommend self-management if the property is local.  Tenant selection and developing skilled trade relationships are key.  I've been doing it for 12 years and never a 2am clogged toilet.  I'm guessing I spend 10 hours a month on 26 SFHs.  I have no doubt that I would have more headaches w/ a PM than w/o.

Interesting. Instead of a floating bar, you can float over and change your motor oil and air filter. Sorry, thumbs down. 

You can call me Betty if you pay your rent on time and take care of my property. 

The realtor makes their money on the commission.  If you finding a lower cost loan affects the relationship, it's not a relationship worth losing money to maintain.  I'm taking the $70 a month. 

I don't know about Ohio, but the process is very simple in NC.  I'm talking 8th grade easy.  Search youtube and the secretary of state website.  Likely one form and a $200 fee.

Having a professional licensed manager would save me maybe 10 hours a month and cost $2,600.  Not to mention a high probability of poor tenant selection and increased maintenance costs. I'd rather keep a PM at arms length from my tenants. 

I thought there was just one Tennessee?

No time for SimCity on steroids or Zuck's cyberworld.  I'll opt for real property and real people that need a place to live.  Although I do like the idea of unclogging a virtual toilet instead of the actual one.
