Then, for the last two years I owned the homes I hired a PM and the company was very organized and tried their best, but since it takes 45 minutes to get from one side of Las Vegas to the other and since my homes were spread throughout every area in the city the PM did not get paid enough money to do frequent inspections and every tenant destroyed every home.

It will solve every issue you raised in your financing question because you can still use your own money and a small private loan to get into a townhome, plus you have the renter from the earliest possible moment, as well as a primary residence for you, access to personal and commercial lending, and reduced expenses.

I have been growing "organically" and it is obvious at this point I need to put a bit more structure around things at this point as I hope to double my doors next year.

You should try to contact some tenant rights organization in LA or your city to see what your options are.

I am using a Zig Ziglar Performance Planner that is working great; very well organized.

Without an app on your phone or something like I'm describing it's harder to stay organized and do things consistently. 

Seems to be an organized and really easy way to track incoming versus expenses.Is a business account something I should be thinking about or just any sort of checking account (for rent payments) and a savings account (anything extra after mortgage payment)Any particular banks that are recommended?

A well organized handyman that has construction skills and people skills is in very high demand.
