(if you have one)In the future I will look into other payment options that won't cost me extra expenses.Thanks

The county is starting to push anyone with a cesspool to convert to septic if they are applying for a building permit.

When your margins are so thin, it's easy to become the slumlord who doesn't want to do anything because you don't have the extra capital to do anything.

A house hack works for just about anybody, with not much money involved.You can also partner with a more experienced investor and/or hard money lender for extra funds & support.

Lot size is goot but depending on the permiting process and building cost a large lot may not add as much value. 

When I took my pieces to drop off at the post office the supervisor told me I had to print my envelopes and handwriting was not permitted. 

Hi,Do we need to get a city electric permit to rewire for light fixtures?

If this is more a unicorn for your market and the extra cash is just going to be sitting in your bank account, then consider putting in in the property. 

An extra $5 an hour over only 6 months (Which is how long I'd work there, maybe 7 if it stays warmer outside longer than normal)  is 5k which is miniscule in the grand scheme of things but is massive for me to acquire that first property.

Sounds like you could pickup another rental with that cash and be looking at another $800-$1000+/mo instead of the extra $400 on that one.
