I was 25 when I retired being an old man in the professional Grand Prix Motorcycle Roadracing sport now known as MotoGP.

Primary Market: Portage, Kalamazoo, Mattawan, Schoolcraft, Vicksburg, Secondary: Grand Rapids, Holland, ZeelandI'm also a licensed agent for my own investment purposes- happy to help fellow local investors when the need arises. 

If seller agreed to take a couple grand and offer seller financing?

Honestly if I find that kind of grand slam then I will buy it or put  a syndicate deal on it.

Obviously, I could spend a couple of grand and replace the carpet and pad which would get rid of the problem unless it is in the sub flooring, but I don't want to spend the money unnecessarily.  

If it's a turd, let it go.Better to be out a couple of grand (you didn't say how much earnest money you put down), learn your lesson, and move on, than own something that is going to continually be a bad investment with the possibility of losing more money.

I've read multiple posts providing recommendations to Ikea and Home Depot, but does anyone in the Grand Rapids or West Michigan area have any local recommendations?

Hi my friends, I hope that you are feeling grand!
