The S Corp treats each property as inventory (think retail) and it works out to save me on short term gains. 

Realtors are Retail sellers.

However, the fam member installing them for me is only a licensed HVAC contractor in FL so he's been unable to buy the units at the regular retailers that would regularly sell it to him (like Bryant, Johnstone Supply, etc).  

You will just likely be looking at a LOT of houses to find one that is marginal, at least for my return needs.Secondly, along these lines: in the neighborhoods I know and invest in, the demand from retail buyers is still very high, and inventory is low.  

A home isn't something we buy at a flea market or a discount retailer.
