The issue for me is trying to make my house more open to match up with theirs.

I can't speak on how demo is done in certain states but from what I could tell you being a license contractor here in NY and you being in NJ which should not be much difference is do the following steps.1- have them demo and take everything plumbing and electric.2- the only scrap metal you should keep is copper, but also negotiate with the demo grew to reduce some cost if they want the copper, all other scrap metals are not word it.3- has for the electric, just have them leave you 2 plugs because that's all you need until you update all your electrical. mostly all power tools are cordless so I doubt you will blow a fuse and you don't need any light because you work will be done during the day.ALSO NOTE: do not have anybody mess/touch/remove with any electrical panel or any electrical box, leave that for a license electrician to do because thats a big safety issue that could bring a lawsuit if a non-license electrician gets any injury for attempting to do so.

.$800 + rents seem to have less issues.

Floors have been my biggest issue thus far.  

Are there other issues I'm not listing?

But, at some point, you have to trust people.I also agree on the potential issues with the current tenants showing the property.

Baring any major unforeseen issues would allow for a bigger profit on a flip.
