Thanks. I saw that on the SBA website. They do not offer a non profit company a loan. I'm short on time at he moment but I will get back with the particulars of our non profit.

I am a member of a non profit - 501c3 - and we are looking to purchase our own building. We can't use a standard FHA loan can we? If not what type of loan products can we use? I have volunteered to lead the building buying team for free experience.

Thank you. I will be using RTA soon. I think they are the best value around. Most cabinet shops around here install similar. Why pay 5k for 1200-1800 worth of cabinets. Those 10x10 deals can't be beat. That kitchen is done right. Price and looks. 

Did you assemble those RTA cabinets yourself? If so how long did they take?

Welcome to the forum.

Lol. 6k for a roof. Around here that's a very very small roof.

Welcome to the forum. Good luck.

Bump

I would say it's priced as if it had a new roof. I like the 50/50 idea. I personally think it's above and beyond to ask for a new roof as a sellers concession also. I do not believe the house can be insured if it does not get one. The sellers may not be aware of that.

I am currently considering putting an offer in on a duplex. It needs a roof. Our insurance rates are very very high in this Parish. Average quotes are 4k-5k a year with a new roof. Provided you can find a broker that is willing to write a policy. I have found one quote in the 2500$ a year range. This is with a newer roof. How do I go about asking for a new roof from the prospective sellers? Is this possible? My insurance company suggested I ask for a sellers concession. A roof? That seems like it won't go very far in the negotiation process. It would be a deal breaker to leave the old roof on.
