Any area in Atlanta(especially inner city areas like the West End, Bankhead, Cascade) would be a good investment with favorable terms and the correct strategy.

Jonna is correct, we are a non-disclosure state meaning that we do not have to disclose the sale price to the county. 

One last question; if I do get my license yet it's considered inactive because I don't belong to a broker, I would still be required to inform the public that I'm "licensed" while wholesaling, correct?

@Lee Ripma is correct - as a California resident actively engaging and managing an LLC from California, California will declare nexus and require a registration, a tax filing and a minimum $800 fee each year.Marketing into other states may or may not create nexus (depending on each state's laws, so look them up) and need to register/file in that state, but as @Wayne Brooks indicated, you will most certainly need to be registered in any state where you want to sign contracts and otherwise conduct business in that state.From each state's point of view, anybody who wishes to sue you must be able to do so in the state where the transaction took place so you must be registered in that state with an agent who can accept legal service on your entity, should the need arise. 

As far as your actual mathematical calculations, yes it is all right except for:1 - your Cash-on-cash you are correct in it being 13.29% if you do not factor in closing costs however, if you factor in 3% ($4,008) closing costs your cash-on-cash is 11.56%2 - you cash flow of $296 is mathematically correct however, understand that your property management will be based off of collected rent and if you are factoring 10% vacancy the correct way would actually be to factor your PM fee after vacancy is accounted for because again most PM fees are on 'collected' rent - so if you run PM AFTER vacancy your PM fees are 1,728/yr. and in turn your cash flow is actually $312/mo. ($3,744/yr.).

From my research for when we had an asbestos concern in our 1981 home, I would say that your asbestos company rep is correct - it'd be really rare to find it in a home built in 1986.

If not, then it does seem like "retaliation" even though you're correct about wanting him on the lease.

you're correct.

Justin Is correct about Texas - we have some odd stuff here. 

It is common to have the FHA appraisal flag small items, peeling paint, correct, re-appraise, and purchase.
