Starting in real estate is exciting but comes with its own set of challenges.

All groups have mentioned, wanting to try our hand at flipping independently, and I thought why not do it together. 

I think you just have to work it in as the cost of doing business.

@Patricia Steiner As it is a condo I would think you could try to get the Association to do external pest control.

Ask them what they are doing to market the home.

I tell them that in my marketing, it's in the header of my application, and we do not make exceptions.

You can build the tool yourself but it will take time. 

You just need confirmation from your broker the amount you would receive from the commission (if they take a cut), if you're your own broker you can authorize that yourself. 

Then progress to permits and then building.You could also just do it and hope the city doesn't notice, which they probably won't.Your challenge will be getting Certificates of Compliance on the units!
