Not some hippy in her basement blending anything they can find.Now before I leave realize this.How ,many students, followers or fans do these popular mentors have?

Many of these renters are often still looking for furnished properties, so if for whatever reason you didn't want to stick with the nightly str model, this would be a seamless transition.

There are ways to stand apart from the crowd and there are ways to blend in.  

Have you done a blended deal, where you maintain your original mortgage and take a HELOC instead of remortgaging the entire thing? 

The seamless route would be to do the $10K route then go the attorney/court route if that ultimate has a snag, which it sounds like it will not have one. 

They will either pass them up for blending in with the crowd or come to the conclusion that if he/she puts this little effort into promoting themselves, how much effort will they put into helping me?

It just blends the scratches into the floor a bit.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000LNSIM8/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?

Other couples are on 2nd marriages with blended families which causes financial hardship.

I'd suggest you hit the open houses in different price points and take note to appliance and fixture grades.The advantage of a drop in is in the design flow of counter space and it being seamless to the counter, spills are easily cleaned up, spill something on the side of a free standing stove means a mess and moving the stove out.

If you put a color closer to the colors of the stone it will blend better, and make the walls look taller rather than broken in half.
