If living there is still on the table it sounds like a good option to stay and enjoy the position you're in, with a lower interest rate (depending how/when it will adjust), rather than entering this tough market with higher prices and rates, where buying a similar house will have a much higher monthly payment.

They will not accept items such as paper diapers, toys, sanitary napkins, tampon applicators, balls of hair, grease, table scraps (if no garbage disposal), clothing, rags, sand, dirt, newspapers, or similar items.

I’d find someone killing it and get them to show me the ropes by giving them value. 5 ways you can bring value to someone you want to learn from:Raise them money Bring them dealsManage their propertiesIntroduce them to connections Pay them for their timeThe question is what assets do you have that you bring to the table that’s valuable, to them?

It also means daddy has to get the kids to agree to the terms of his deal in order to keep peace in the family.Sorry, Joe, but a side-by-side may give the seller an idea of what he’s leaving on the table, but that may not be enough.  

To be clear, the GC is not a member of the any of the contractor crew (although he is responsible for finding these crews and bringing them in) so he's not making any money on the renovation (unless they are giving him some sort of kickback under the table which I do not believe is happening).  

You will have to bring 35-45%-ish of the cost of the lot to the table. 

On top of everything above- keep in mind that with every "head in bed" you need to scale up the number of seats at the dinner table, space/seats living room, towels, plates etc etc.

Rest assured that you don't need to bring all cash to the table on a fix and flip and we can assist you in closing the loan.

These can be buried if you like.Your water table is probably pretty shallow.

I'm not sure what a newbie brings to the table during the rehab process anyway.
