You will need to narrow down the zip code or street a little more based on where you decide to purchase, but this gives you a good start.

Your original purchase is depreciated over 27.5 years.

Primary home is a little easier but for FHA and other programs it requires 12 months title seasoning.There is something called delayed financing that if you purchase a piece of land and pay for the home "All Cash" without a mortgage you can get up to 80% LTC.

I have several CFO clients that do similar heavy rehab projects in the Midwest (albeit with a lower purchase price), so you can definitely make the numbers work. 

Purchase price is $210,000.

No, you cannot purchase a home with an FHA loan via an LLC.
