The only post-sale right of redemption periods that I know apply are the HOA and tax liens. 

@Dawn Brenengen on C class and lower I don't think anyone I know has EVER given a deposit back period...

Is there a set period wait/time , of which you have to wait before you can claim Rental income as " Actual " income , via your taxes ?

The landlord may enter the dwelling unit when necessary for the other purposes mentioned above under any of the following circumstances: with the consent of the tenant, in case of emergency, when the tenant unreasonably withholds consent, or if the tenant is absent from the premises for a period of time equal to one-half the time for periodic rental payments.

I will show over a period of several days.

Many of these tasks you mention are part of the cost of doing business, such as periodic painting and replacing flooring (see some of the discussions on products like Allure if you want to avoid carpet issues).I think you have gotten more than your nickel's worth on this paint job and flooring, and even the most frugal landlord would want to redo these at this time (turn over is the ideal time).

We have a HUD house under contract and are in a 10 day inspection period and called to have utilities turned on for the inspector.

Examine other markets after a period of time to move to if necessary.

You can also work directly with a tax attorney or CPA who is familiar with these plans.All 401k plans must remain current with changes to the tax code, so you will want to have an ongoing relationship with a legal resource that can provide periodic amendments.The advantage of a quality firm (not just a document provider) that specializes in self-directed Solo 401k plans is that you will have access to training and consulting advice so that you can operate your plan within the framework of the IRS limitations.

By renting a second place for a period of time, you are just worsening your financial situation by increasing your expenses while not adding anything to the asset column.Personally, if you're OK with living where you are now, I would use down payment and go hunting for an investment property that will produce positive cash flow to help offset your existing losses on the condo.
