Has anyone had luck getting it rented using archived photos and starting the leasing process prior to the old tenant moving out? 

Another option is to find a local cabinet and counter top company, take photos and draw accurate renederings with the dimensions of your kitchen .

If so, would they be reliable in terms of seeing some houses and taking photos, etc.

Now, when it comes to running your numbers without photos or viewing, there really is no way to get a very accurate picture.

@Russell HolmesI appreciate your photo array and alignment.

Are their listings detailed with good quality photos?

I'm reading J Scott's books on Estimating Rehabbing Costs, but I still feel I'm no closer to be able to estimate rehab costs with any confidence, especially when I'm looking at listings with only photos, some with bad photos or no photos at all. 

Dig into that listing... does it lack photos? 

Then I'd take photos of the filled dirt on your property and would then write a letter to the neighbor telling them to fix it - else you'll hire someone to do the work and will then take them to small claims for filing fees and the cost of the labor.
