I am a fix/flipper in a tight market and looking to expand my opportunities past the usual. 

That's still an option, but it will be a bit tight, so I want to find out who might provide a bridge loan or landlord financing for this property.

The existing tenants have mentioned separately (this is an up/down duplex) of smell of mold.This is not difficult to believe if in fact there are these obvious cracks on the home exterior.There is no doubt water/moisture is getting into the home and creating a condition for mold to grow.We had a structural engineer out to do our buyer’s inspection yesterday, report is due out later this evening (11/04/17).Verbal communication while on site, indicated a mutually shared concern over these cracks.The roof appears fine.A wall in the backyard will need replacing as the soil weight has almost pushed this wall over and it is only a matter of time before this thing comes falling over.Boiler may need replaced, windows as there is some clear cold.These are just concerns at this time but inspection report will lay all this out once received later today.I should have been a little smarter in not agreeing to a change in inspection objection deadline when it was presented by seller.My buyer’s agent and I should really have talked this one over, as I realize now that, it left us with only hours after inspection to come up with our inspection objection response and to be honest I will not have time to get bids for any of the extensive repair items which I do not doubt will be confirmed in the report received later today.Seeking any advice that you can give on the following: Would you proceed with purchase of the above detailed home?

These mfrs use #1 and #2 grade framing lumber to build floors/walls/ceilings in jigs that yield panels with very tight dimensional tolerances.

Thus, I am currently looking for referrals for a good GC that can acommodate a tight timeline.

Sounds like you are still working on that.Seems tight overall for a flip.

Otherwise I tell them they owe all rents, all late fees plus the cost of the filing fees which must be paid before the deadline on the notice they're received from the Clerk of Court.I have been contacted by other landlords regarding two different tenants who were being evicted due to nonpayment of rent. 

Do they not know how to work it,is actually broken, or is it just a tight fit?

The key is to screen properly, collect a deposit commensurate with the level of risk a particular tenant presents, and have tight processes in place to stop problems early.

The  purpose of your contract will be to identify the price the seller is willing to accept, a deadline, and ensure that you can't be squeezed out.
