I was thinking they could take care of things like research options for insurance, find contractors for repairs on rentals, intake tenant maintenance requests, assist with finding deals, and organize the documentation for each property.

What are my options to get this deal done? 

Recommendations can be short-term uses to bring in revenue while considering long-term plans.The land costs almost nothing to own, so selling is an option but I would much prefer to keep it and generate income from it.

.- Your options are to either wait out the 12-month waiting period and refinance into an investment property loan using a conventional loan or look for a non-conventional loan.

Have you spoken with the Seller on the option of Seller financing? 

Tampa Can Be a Good Option,it has great rental opportunities in neighborhoods like South Tampa, Tampa Heights, Seminole Heights, Carrollwood, and Brandon.Before buying, analyze costs like purchase price, rental income, management fees, repairs, and vacancy rates to ensure a good investment.Other Florida markets like Orlando or Jacksonville might offer similar benefits depending on your investment goals.

In addition, I would discuss what your thinking and what your attorneys advise with your CPA to make sure you have a complete picture of everything involved and how it will effect your bottom line. 

@Brad S. has a good point that I forgot....if there is an issue that involves insurance, the first thing they do is check permits.

I have a 2.99% 30 year fixed I would do a lease option or mortgage wrap with for someone with a $480K down payment.

Second option, if it's even valid, I could build a new house in one of these new communities and then have the house for another few months and sell it (assuming that it would have increased in value) Any input to any of these two strategies would be highly appreciated!
