I already have an installer who has recommended a dealer.

WE do include fees for removal of personal items, including excess trash. 

They get them lined up and collect those fees then its debt deny deny , next !!

I found a third party that will install and maintain washer dryers in my laundry room. 

I know a drop-in sink with stone counters is not ideal, but it hardly seems worth it to pay $500 or more to buy and have installed a new sink (not to mention what additional faucet cutouts might cost), when the existing sink is perfectly fine and already has a practically new brushed nickel Delta faucet.

I myself am not. and most flippers are not GC's  so all of us non GC's need the developers license.. now there is no test just pay the fee. you must have proof of insurance and a 50k bond.. the bond and insurance for those that have little to no money or bad credit can be a stumbling block.

They then installed a huge portable standalone pizza oven on their porch (got it from Sam's) for bigger groups.

Account Closed $60,000 loan in Michigan usually doesn’t fail the points and fees test so I am very surprised you are having such an issue. 

Sometimes the HOA fees (essential the same as our Body Corporate fees for units here in Oz) can be very high and out weigh any cashflow benefit of the rent.Getting funding can certainly be harder but not impossible. 

On top of that, the legal fees and time it takes to clear the property...
