I called her almost 2 weeks later to follow up, left her a VM, and she hasn't called me back yet.I'm getting frustrated by the lack of professionalism and ambition from some of these real estate agents. 

This is why the builder's will give you $5k or $10k in credits to work with the preferred lender -- if someone is selling a house for $40k more than it's worth, they can afford to cut you a $10k check to make sure it goes smoothly. 

If your using money you cant afford to lose and or need to finance or plan to resell.. then buying a property without title insurance is risky.cheap land is many times bought with out title insurance..

My big why is to provide nice, affordable housing to good people while improving property and communities.

This sounds like one of those situations that is so frustrating, and unfair that it boils your skin!

I have a job lined up which I am taking and will have documentation of my pay plan of how much I will be making and have worked elsewhere for 6 years but I don’t have 2 years of W-2 at the job where I would Be Able to afford my payments are there any ways around this?

I enjoy great cash flow and increasing values.More people can afford to get into investing at a $225,000 price point than can get in for $500,000.

The saddest part of all was the next door neighbor came outside thinking we were the new owners, she was venting that all of the recent gentrification nearby had caused her taxes to go up so much that she was unable to afford her house anymore, she had been there most of her life. 

It seems they had some changes to their income in a downward direction of which I hadn’t been aware, and they decided they could not afford to stay. 

If you can afford two investment properties both vacant or not paying for ~1 year having reserve funds, I would say go ahead.
