So, if anyone has a recommendation of where to go to brush up on this skillset, please let me know. 

NOt very typical but won't say it is impossible.Also keep in mind you may be required to have som eof your own money in the game as well IE. soft closing costs Etc.....What about trying to go conventional or FHA on a duplex?

And get sheets of drywall and paint brushes in those kiddos' hands.

Do my own pest control.com has a product called Brigand, a soft bait that they will eat.

Valspar makes a matt clear you can roll/brush on, which i was going to use for the whole project to avoid spraying indoors,but i could not find it locally.Since the doors get all the abuse from handling, it was important to me to have the extra protection on them.I did not anticipate how much i would like the look and feel of the matt clear!

What about the parts that are soft when i step on that area?

They all seem to have the same application software that does a soft credit pull and spits out results...

I made a walk through today, and everything seemed to be in good shape with the exception of some soft spots in the hallway floor.

Since I took the training about ten years ago I have loaned my dvds out and never got them back, I was just looking for a new set to brush back up when I saw your question on a google search.

We can add soft charges for employee time but they cannot be excessive.
