Taking the loss now is preferable to paying out monthly for the privilege of being a landlord.

What you spent on the land/lots can go towards your down payment and, if you've owned the land for more than 6 months, you can use the value of the property toward the cash injection requirement.

It was taking weeks and months to make small progress on these properties, and I was getting discouraged at the lack of progress.  

I would do it even if I sell far outside the 18 month window.  

You enter it as a monthly expense. 

You would have to quit claim deed your property from your LLC to your personal name and wait 6 to 12 months, If it was even possible.

I would pull a FHA loan for $665,000 and live in one side and rent the other side out to a family member for $2,000 a month.

I have about 10-20 with a $4,000 balance now on a $1000 month rent, more with 2 months balance...

We’ve been trying to onboard with AppFolio for the past two months, but the process has been incredibly frustrating.

It is a fairly signinificant set up fee and monthly charge.
