Time, Interest, and Energy. 

Sounds horrible and always so frustrating when you just needed a service to be performed.I had the issue with the electrical inspection for the new pool panel in AZ.

The only VA construction loans they do are full / new construction or the energy efficient renovation loans (which I think are more common, but are limited to only energy efficiency improvements).  

I would like to know what all qualifies as completely clean here- Electrical wiring is normal and no unlicensed modifications - Structural inspection is also clean.Seller is ready to discount the price by ~20% from market plus the cost to repaint the whole house What are other questions to ask and things to consider in this scenario?

Prices have jumped up pretty significantly the last few years; I had an addition done in 2021 just when lumber was starting to go berserk and I spent $100/sf *BUT* I use a lot of these contractors in my rental business and it wasn't a turnkey job - I did the electric, insulation, HVAC extensions, painting and trimwork.

I even had two people claim to be licensed in certain areas that in fact they were not and could not even pull a permit... not to mention they were not even properly credentialed for major things like electrical and plumbing. 

HVAC, electrical, major plumbing, etc.I know for a fact there are a lot of people not following the ARS on that. $1,000 doesn't get you very far these days.

You will have to manage a builder and bank time and energy for that.Out of state investing takes different time and energy inputs by building a team and managing that team to move you closer to your goals.  

As soon as you open up drywall, frame new walls, redo electrical or plumbing your timeline and budget explodes.A good flip follows the same sequence as new construction:1.)

The home has a newer roofer (7 years old), New Furnace (2 years old), Newer Windows, and New Electrical.
