@Matt Holmer  Full Disclosure, I am a Portfolio Lender that Specializes in these type of Loans....but that being said, Rates are between 6.5-8.50% 30 year fixed/30 year amortization with a 1 year Prepayment penalty.  

Lastly does anyone know of any Charlotte real estate firms or agents that specialize in investments like this?

How long have you been doing that and what's your speciality?

Most IRA custodians who accept single member LLCs as IRA investments will require that you appoint some kind of special advisor (licensed CPA or attorney) who will review all the transactions of the LLC to make sure there are not any prohibited transactions happening.

It's a specialized business degree, very practical in studies, and all directly related to my career in commercial project management for a general contractor.

A Supplemental may be possible to take you up to 75% LTV if it's been at least a year since the closing date of the last loan.  

Hi Jake, I am a real estate agent specializing in working with investors.

General inspectors are not specialized enough to be depended on.

Tyler, If you want to save money with windows make sure your windows are standard size, specially if is a low budget project.

If you do as the builder did above and backfill with compacted suitable soil, then it's likely that the basement slab may not need anything special to support it and so a basement was a no brainier.
