How do I find an experienced "Flip" Contractor in Las Vegas?

Talk with some experienced investors.

In fact, he can't by law (at least in Ohio).You are better off working this deal with an experienced wholesaler if you want to get paid. 

I hope this all helps, I encourage you to find an investor experienced with rentals and ask him this very question if you want a more definite answer.

We are experienced in Flipping and also doing some new construction now.

Also, there are more experienced financiers on BP than I am (for example, @Jerry Padilla), but I know you can get 10 conventional mortgages in your name and your husband can have 10 in his name (so you've got a long way to go before you have to find alternative lending sources). 

They should be experienced and trustworthy.  

I currently have about 12 other commercial loans spread over 3 different lenders, and none required a 1/2 year prepaid taxes.My point would really be simply that what you experienced isn't a federal requirement, so it shouldn't be stated as "universal fact". 

Total returns will likely not be as high as you have currently experienced, though if you operate well they certainly can be, but as you point out the cash flow into your pocket will be considerably higher.

The house was bought through a wholesaler by the way.I have 3 questions for someone who is experienced in this situation1.
