That will reduce some of the feelings of being overwhelmed as it's you simply progress through the book rather than going off on 50 different tangents. 

For not commitment they can help you assess whether or not this is a reality.

Although I like the potential of being a sales associateI've got goals of doing flips and rentals of about 10 deals this year and increase them as time progresses.  

There are literally thousands of MHC's that are no longer in the path of progress and the incentive to continue feeding new MH's in old MHC's is diminishing more and more by the year.

My first deal has been delayed for three weeks now because the local HOA assessed fees on HUD for not having a mailbox up throughout the period of the foreclosure.Is this a normal kind of delay?

I'm trying to do my own taxes and want to know if I provide anything on this year's return about my flip-in-progress's cost in 2016 (even though it's not sold yet but I purchased it and had many expenses in 2016) or I wait and report everything at once (basis cost and profit made) on the return for year it's sold.

What kind of neighborhood does tax assessment say?

The easiest, although not guaranteed, is to look at the property appraiser site, to see if "bldg" is being assesses with the property, or just the land.
