Can you explain a little more in detail.  

My main objective for now is to learn more about developing/building a site for my LLC and also wholesaling tactics that others have used with good experiences.

I am in a unique situation though and i will explain.

In podcast 210, sunny and sunmarie explained that they purchased their quadplex without a buyer agent.

Won't be your problem, but you can explain it in general if you want.Lastly, don't do a Land Contract or Contract of Deed.  

@Holly Scott outside of the contractor issue - this shouldn't be a huge deal - a roof permit is typically an inspection after completion, so depending on how nice the building dept plays you can probably get an after the fact permit so long as you explain the issue.The contractor not being able to show a permit was pulled is pretty telling.

Especially since you are buying something so expensive and financing it (buying depreciating objects is not recommended if you want to be financially independent).
