My contractor who installed the driveway had extra material leftover from the main portion of the driveway.  

Hello everyone I just finished the ultimate beginners guide and thought my business plan would be next step to pave the way to my investment goals, but have a question in the criteria portion Criteria - asked to define Ltv.

Unfortunately,  I wanted the commercial portion of the mixed-use building to be designated as an office, but I was not aware of the 50% requirement ( as most of the buildings I am looking at are about 85% residential).

It would depend on the loan, most would include a portion of the rehab.

Found a house rented by a bunch of grad students where 1 was studying abroad for the summer and I took over his portion of the lease for that time.

If the tenants are on a 12 month lease, you could say that breaking the lease will result in a fee equal to one month's rent, but I would not state that they will forfeit their security deposit or any portion thereof, because by law, these funds are not to be used for any reason other than for damages to the property. 

I don't think it's 100% but it's a good portion (maybe 80-85%)

There's so much information out there and a good portion of it is on BP, but yet people still get lost somewhere along the line and can't figure out what to do after they have spent hours on YouTube, forums etc.

If you do decide to rent it out, sell within 36 months to at least maintain a portion of the tax exclusion.  

I am considering approaching the large tenant to see if they would have interest in some sort of lease to own program, maybe just for their portion of the building?
