I am not familiar with Las Vegas rules but most platforms won’t let you apply for a permit unless you are on the title of the property, then you will need to furnish the property after closing unless you are purchasing a property that comes furnished.

I'm a civil engineer, and for example, I do the civil engineering/permitting for many Gas-Station & Convenience Store.

****little about the deal that I’m putting together I have a piece of land that that is permit ready plans approved ready to build on held it my property with no lien.

The local permit office is also known for its efficiency and helpfulness.3.

As a non EU citizen, I will need a permit to purchase certain types of properties, except for residential (unit in an apartment). 

I am learning about Fix and Flip strategies (I've only done developments).I want to grow my income from Real Estate while working on developments (ie waiting for zoning, permits and building)What have become your go to finishes for fix and flips to maximize value?

Ive done all my research (plans, permits, contractors, etc) and feel like it's a no brainer and a fairly streamlined approval process in my area.

Any violations, open permits, etc.?

Quote from @Kevin Akers: If you have everything else in place (financing, permits, etc) and have underwritten the deal where the numbers make sense you can work on raising the 50K from private investors. 

If there are any known issues(even as simple as a bad $7 shutoff valve) you will not be permitted to turn on utilities.
