New and wanting advice
My name is Dani and my husband and I have always loved doing things ourselves. Since we started a family, we are looking at selling our beautiful home and buying a fixer that we can flip and possibly sell for a profit in the next few years. If we can successfully flip and we enjoy the process, I'd love to make it a businessbusiness and flip more houses. The issue is we just found out I'm pregnant so instead of us doing 80% of the work like we planned, my wonderful and overprotective husband is nervous about me even laying laminate or painting. Now I have to figure out how we an afford it while hiring help. Our bank refuses to finance a home that won't pass inspection. How do you finance besides an investor when it may be a long term property?
