Any help would be great (I am already working with a broker, looking for an investors knowledge, brokers lips are pretty sealed these days)

I do the things I have comfort levels with , and I Hire contractors, and observe and learn .I'm building a shop right now for my tools and work trucks , hired a concrete contractor he has shown me so much stuff I didn't even think about, I am very glad I hired him.I though well, frame it up and pour, he shows up with lazer levels, puts a lip on it so water wont enter my building, bevels doorways, wire and shale , visqueen , , under concrete so it wont sweat, gas powered finishersThat's the best money I have spent in a long time.

So actions have consequences and if this is the direction the system is prepared to go, landlords will bite their lip, devise a plan and it will be priced into the sytem. 

Sounds like you need to put you're pinky to your lips like Dr Evil 😉

Never do gutters before roof because they will need to cut the lip cap which can lead to water intrusion.

However, in terms of quality control, I have seen differences with where the mounting brackets attach to the boxes, which makes it difficult to get neighboring boxes perfectly flush at the front edge - like a small lip between 1/32" to 1/16".  

Also, the new trendy sinks offer a thin lip for an easy top mount sink rather than under mount.

There are so many brokers out there that will just give you lip service to get you in to any deal they can do they can get paid.I’ve always thought that you will make a higher return if you invest in a good investment property.

Those guys know how to put lip stick on a pig!!

A lot of houses that are remodeled have issues that were not addressed but are nothing more than lip stick on a pig!
