Be prepared to "waste" a lot of paper towels doing this, an irresponsible amount. 100% silicone caulk is extremely sticky and slimy, and you have to keep your finger clean as you work.

Did minor repairs inside and cleaned up the deferred maintenance on the yard using only about $5000 of our own money.

I dont think the tenants that are currently there could pay for a 30 to 35% rent increase so the choice would be to let them stay and raise the rent bit by bit or non-renew and have them move out so i can renovate, clean up and get market rent with new tenants.

His specialty is flipping lots and I jumped right in by purchasing an empty lot with my profits which was a pretty scary thing to do.The lot is ready to go, I got it cleaned up, prepped the pad for the house, and all I am waiting on now are the Permits to get approved which we are in almost 2 months now waiting.I'm already working on getting the money from a lender but I'm wondering if there are better options out there to finance my construction?

It seems to me that you can argue that the first offer came from "John Doe" and the second came from "John Doe, LLC", which is an entirely different entity.It also seems to me that you have clean hands in this transaction as long as you didn't know that it was the same person.
