I live here as well.

In addition, the owner of the home must not own more than three single-family homes.3) They are unable to provide sufficient documentation, such as the emotional support animal letter, that verifies the ESA is necessary for their health and well-being.4) The tenant provides fraudulent documentation attesting to their need for an emotional support animal (usually a fake emotional support animal letter).5) The landlord can demonstrate that making accommodations for an ESA would impose undue financial burden or logistical burden. 6) The animal is destructive to the property or displays threatening behaviors that could put other tenants or yourself at risk.7) The size or nature of the animal makes it impossible to house safely or humanely.

How well would someone accustomed to living in a dilapidated house maintain it during the sales process?  

For SFH New Tampa is good if you're looking for newer builds, I also recommend Carrollwood and Citrus Park for SFH as well as the others I stated. 

Louis as well.

I feel like i would open it up but stage it well with furniture to show the split 

My CPA is not 100 percent sure as well.

@Justin Holley it all depends and there is a lot of flexibility.Our PMC is able to pay insurance & taxes for owners as well as utilitieis on vacant & MF properties.The only thing we shy away from is mortgage payments - too much potential liability if we pay late due to our error or owner portfolio doesn't have needed funds.Pretty much anything specifically related to a property should probably be paid via the Property LLC for easier accounting/tracking.

would an alternative route be getting a limited FHA 203(k) Loan to purchase an auctioned home or does FHA 203(k) require an inspector first as well?

Well that makes sense.
