I've seen contractors propose these both ways for the same work.If it's an alteration, would it be considered a repair??

Any info on the area, comps, rental cap rates, property appreciation, contractors, inspectors ...ANYTHING !!!

@Michael Noto I've owned the property since April 2017 and finished the renovations to a point where the HUD consultant and contractor deemed "livable condition" in November.

It is an electric mower (again not a huge yard and would be worried about the pricier gas mowers and someone not using right) but that leaves possibility of them running over the cord. 

Can any investor recommend any good and reliable rehab contractor within marysville,wa?

There is an argument to be made that a land contract or a subject 2 structured strong enough could cross the "risk of loss passing" bar and that the bundle of rights you have in controlling the property is enough to make it equivalent to having a deeded interest in the property.We've done 1031 exchanges for land contracts occasionally. 

My main concern with the long distance investing is getting cheated on quotes from contractors because I can not be there to see the work.

I'm a real estate investor from Atlanta, GA and am looking for property managers & contractors in the Huntsville, AL area. 

The contractor kept promising 2 months, it would be complete in 2 months and each time that deadline would come and go.In July I'd had enough and asked if I could take over on his behalf, be the quarterback and get this house to the finish line.
