There are a few other unusual benefits that I think could also be incorporated into this model that people today would love; and I'll explore those next time.

I have been looking for sometime now with no success.If needed I can share a few contacts for trades that I have found to be outstanding such as plumber, screen repair and flooring.Is it unusual to want to pay a handyman per hour?

Breaking the land vs building values down per year, I found what seems to me to be an odd "adjustment" or "shift" of value from the year 2010 to 2011 where my land value shot up an unusually high amount but my building value lowered by an equal amount, leaving a net change of 0.The image below shows the situation.  

Here is a list of forms http://sos.ga.gov/cgi-bin/corpforms.asp the first one you should file is the Name Reservation, unless you think you're going to have an unusual name that nobody has already used.  

I've also found older threads on BP where people have horror stories AND good stories so I'm just uncertain at this point.

Do not try anything unusual.  

I plan on paying cash for both because my employment is very uncertain and so I struggle to get loans.

The existing loan had a pre-pay penalty  the seller did not want to break and pay the large fee.The loan for me to assume had an unusual 15 year amortization.

It's unusual for someone to buy a $2-3mil home without a significant down payment.

@Kevin Dureiko Chris is right about the SEC filing, but keep in mind you can recoup the costs (and any accounting or legal fees) out of the capital raised as long as it's disclosed in your private placementThis sounds unusual that you'd have to register as a RIA because to my knowledge that's not a requirement.
