I have recently transitioned from being a roofing salesman to real estate investing.

My team and I have a list of preferred partners to make the process as smooth as possible.Best of luck!

I transitioned my STR over to targeting Travel Nurses and have been super happy with it.

( bank law that is).Hopefully inspection should go smoothly and your Agent that earns that comish should be on top of this issue!!!

@Andrew Sprague Here is a great step by step recommended process for a smooth FHA 203k - FHA 203k Recommended Steps

Hopefully it goes smooth and even if I have to go $15-20k out of pocket to acquire a new rental and learn the process, that’s fine by me.

Anyone suggest if I should learn the residential side as an agent and then transition into doing commercial deals as well.

While some choose to continue to flip for their entire careers, I see many that transition flipping into rentals as a source of long-term cash flow, which is what it sounds like you're shooting to do in replacing your current job.

Once you make the transition to commercial loans, you'll never go back.  

The turnkey deal went pretty smoothly, and we are looking to invest more with them, however, the quality of the deal has seemed to decrease over time.
