Formica Counter’s get water logged and destroyed, but with granite I can simply replace the cabinets if need be and reuse the granite.

@Mariah J. as others said best to speak with accountant, but having the RE licence wont necessarily be needed for the RE professional requirement.

Our lease states it's the tenant's responsibility (except for termites or other wood destroying insects).

For the home prices I am targeting a lot most conventional loans wont work with me.

I know its done all the time.. and most borrowers just cave and go away.. but it wont hold up if challenged.  

The seller then came back at 12,000 and wont accept less as they thought they could get 25,000 for the property and feel they're being more than reasonable.At this point, the real estate agent we're both working through brought up that the Tax Assessed Value of the property is 47,800 and told me I would be getting instant equity at 12,000 and could pull some of that out to fund the rehad.

@Wayne Brooks I had a major hard money lender tell me that they wont lend to you if you dont own your primary.

The house faired incredibly well through the hurricane that destroyed many houses in the neighborhood and the rest of Jacksonville.

But really not by just making a channel and post these retarded videos of:"hi my name is Ape, ... do YOU need to sell your house. did YOUR dog die and now you need to move, Did the aliens destroy your roof and cant avoid the repairs.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated. you may find this quite difficult those that can develop the land are not that plentiful like those that buy rentals or rehabs.. and so they usually wont deal with someone who is not the owner.. no reason to. they will know you cant close most of the time and if they are interested will just make a back up offer and wait you out..
