My capex budget includes but not limited to: roof 25 year life span, floors 10 year life span, appliances and hot water heater 12 year life span, hvac 20 year life span, kitchen and bath remodel 20 year life spa, etc.

Being that I haven’t done anything with taxes yet, can I count items from previous years (i.e. new roof, insulation, electrical)?

You're going to need a Non Qm lender most likely or a private money loan.

Metal roofs and brick construction cost you less over time than asphalt and vinyl.

The roof is original and will come in the next 5 years...I am fully aware that there will never be a perfect home, but in the hot markets of the last weeks in Charleston, SC I am concerned we might have caught a peak...

It needs a new roof, currently runs on oil (needs to be converted eventually), but both of these jobs are well over 150k which we dont have.We met with a couple younger kids regarding marijuana facility since they grow it in a smaller facility.

New roof 20192.

Next, we demolished both bathrooms, completely gutted the kitchen and tore off the existing roof.

Stokes Jr 2 things... one, they know in a crisis situation, you're more likely to keep a roof over your own head paid than an investment, and second, because a majority of the mortgage industry plays to the tune of Fannie and Freddie, which would rather show gains in new home ownership over new millionaires made.

In the due diligence period - my awesome agent & partner Corby not only handled the 1031 but got me a free brand new roof on an insurance claim from previous hail damage prior to closing.
