As Loc just posted, anyone who takes your money can not simply say you'll get your money when it's paid off, that's just nuts, look ate the borrowers for these loans, some don't have the capacity to get conventional financing now, nor will they later on.

I don't know when they had time to sleep.I watched others have multiple jobs one was in food so they ate for free every day.

If so, they can be money pits, even after full rehab [I've ate several of these "vegetables"].Hang in there!

If  you want to be a cop don't get a criminal justice degree because being a police officer requires 4 year degree in any major (in my area ate last).

@Angel Acosta that is a lot of profit ate up just on getting the loan, me personally I would look for other options possibly finding a private money lenders.

Several items were not finished including a missing gutter, unfinished trim, and completely covered a bathroom vent (the duct now vents into my attic).quite a few columns of nails completely miss the joist (I was able to see this after opening up the interior)I ate the cost of two additional dumpsters because he didn't know what size he needed.I'm not going to eat any additional cost due to his shoddy business operation.
