They will never know,  I would just buy a shingle that looks like the rest of the neighborhood.  I think your overthinking.  I honestly doubt someone is going to pull up to the house and go  "Honey can't buy this one, thats not a 30year shingles" They are going to go "Wow luck honey a new roof, just think we don't have to buy a new roof for years"

They are the same shingles.  Shingle warranties are the biggest joke in the world its a pro rated warranty and by year 25 coverage is like next to nothing.

Do the 25 year and save some money

You can do deals with less than 20% down they have 90/95 Loan to valuve deals out there.  I use a program to fund my deals

You interested in Grand Rapids, Mi.  I'm a licensed GC and custom home builder.

I agree with the others, get a bunch of loans.  What state are you in?

Hard money guys just look at the deal. If the ARV is good you can usually get them to go for it. You will have to shop to find the right deal.

When I started out I thought I would try to do the wholesale thing, and I learned really quick that its not for me.  I just didn't have the marketing ability to reach the people.  Wholesalers have to work super hard to make deals.  Its a grind.

I'm a gc and I agree with your GC ideas somewhat.

I agree for any REHAB job under 40k, you dont need us and a real GC wont even touch those jobs.

Me personally I don't even look at a job unless the budget is 200k and above

I would pass, cash flow is to thin for me. Does it need any rehab, I would do a flip on it if the ARV was in line

I use a string line all the time for this type of thing.  Takes  practice to start off square, but they sell laser squares that could help you start this.
