A former rental home that we restored to its former glory and updated it with modern necessities.

@Yengkong Sayaovong you can put them up on a hotel while you remediate You can call a restoration company and they will charge you an arm and a leg or you can get rid of it a cheaper way(by not calling them)

He "skim-coated" and retextured every surface of the house in a week without hurting the hardwood floors.Alamo-Hytech - they were willing to come out and give foundation repair quotes during the due-diligence-period and get me quotes I can use during the negotiation.For my Converse Property:DC Restorations - they mainly do insurance work.

I just recently started a pretty successful Airbnb in Miami (Bombadil’s Inn), in the midst of the so called Airbnb Bust, and also just got an amazing deal on a house on the coast of Spain that I’m currently preparing for a vacation rental (I also have plans to restore its attached bar into a bar/restaurant at some point in the future). 

I'm getting close to going through with a purchase of a 1969 Airstream that I plan on restoring and completing some renovations on.

You have to be better than the rest to make more money than the rest. Or

You'll likely incur costs and stress/hassle due to evicting the tenant, then costs to restore the unit to livable condition.

If it doesn't cover what you are asking the applicant picks up the rest or hopes you accept what housing offers

----------@David Engle: I was able to replace 24" bifold doors with a 24" standard door (that I bought at habitat restore for 6 dollars).

But it depends on your entitlement, how much you use (purchase price), whether you refinance to Conventional and restore your entitlement before moving on to the next property, etc.Make sure to align yourself with a rockstar loan officer that specializes in VA and understands investors.
