I’m looking for a local investor who’d be willing to share their thoughts on flips in a few neighborhoods in mainly the Little Rock area.

I have rented the room only with main house kitchen access in the past for $750, and I feel like the private area and private kitchen add value, I'm just not sure how much.Thank you!!

Meanwhile I can attack the mortgage aggressively.

I am not a CPA, so be sure to speak with yours...but to your main question:  yes, she will have to pay capital gains taxes on any gains since she has not occupied the property in the last 5 years. 

For example maybe give 90% of your bookings to one cleaner, and 10% of your bookings to another so that you establish a relationship with a 2nd cleaner in case there are any unforseen issues with your main cleaner. 

I have around 40-50k that I can put into a down payment but my main hurdle is financing the property.

When considering the rehab we wanted to do a lot of the work ourself—mainly kitchen/bathroom/bedrooms.

I would really appreciate any advice or critique as my main concern was the chronological structuring and also if anyone knew the time table of refinancing a FHA loan even after repairs) If anyone experienced has any insight to refining this plan, I greatly appreciate it!

Since it sounds like your property is owner occupied first (it's still your residence when you travel for work), have you gotten quotes as your residence and then added the rental use for the ADUs and part time your main home? 

- Initial capital infusion was too low and ideally I would have budgeted for more startup expenses; this is mainly due to the four renovations and HVAC issues.- Would have inspected all HVAC units and used failing HVAC systems as negotiation point (two HVAC units failed within one month after purchase).
