Like in my situation I got great credit as I handle my money well which is a bonus for the seller but I don't have much cash which would work in my favor.

Its expensive, but its completely transformed our business (seriously). 

Is it still included in the bonus material?

If I can do more once I get my feet wet then bonus.

Examples of income of this type include income from hourly workers with fluctuating hours, or income that includes commissions, bonuses, or overtime.History of Receipt: Two or more years of receipt of a particular type of variable income is recommended; however, variable income that has been received for 12 to 24 months may be considered as acceptable income, as long as the borrower’s loan application demonstrates that there are positive factors that reasonably offset the shorter income history.Examples of positive compensating factors that we like to see (1-3 will generally do it)...Employed in same line of work.Makes sense from a common sense perspective, like someone is returning to the workforce after being a stay at home parent for a while.Recently finished some training or education program that lines up with the new line of work.Low DTI.Great credit.Income trending upwards. 

..once you are negotiating with the bank and agree on a NET PRICE to them, you can boost the purchase price adding in all rehab costs as part of the deal..you can even have the bank give your Buyers Agent Realtor a $2000 bonus which in most states your realtor can REBATE to you on the closing statement (limited to a max of up to 1% of the agents usual 3% commission..so there's probably a few extra bucks going to your realtor in the end and she will love you for that. 

We even got a bonus surprise when we pulled the carpet and discovered some awesome 60's, rock print, green vinyl underneath. 

I think that could really transform the room. 

Simply because I feel my people and negotiating skills could easily be transformed and work to an extreme advantage in this field of the real estate market!

It's more of a cultural thing than a normal cleanliness thing, guess.Getting to know and network with a REI Investor would be a bonus, but obviously not required.
