Does anyone have experience restoring fire damaged properties?  

I think Lighting  is so important on a renovated home, and I found this site Aliexpress.com  they sell Restoration Hardware lights there instead of paying $900 you’ll pay $65, I’m putting a couple barn slider doors in this home like the other one, I am really looking forward to the end result of this home so that I can show myself I can make maximum profit.

Also realtor clients have used them as well.I use Wildwood Home Services for items such as this, though, because he can repair leak plus repair sheet rock and restore area to pre-damaged condition.

Police report and code enforcement have been notified.Do we have any other options I feel the seller should restore the land as close to original as when we signed to open escrow.Thought please.

., 2 bedrooms and a bathroom floor around 1 inch; may need 3-4 more footings and floor joists (max $3000) ....2)roof shingles replacement (~$7000).... 3) kitchen complete Reno, countertops, cabinets, appliances, flooring (~$30,000 )..... 4) on 2nd floor, add master suite by converting one existing bedroom and common area ($40,000).... 5)galvanized plumbing ($5000)..... 6) old electrical ($5000).......7) restore a garage that was converted to closet+laundry room around 50yrs ago (~$3000 max)...... 8) remove radiators and the heating unit.....

My question is if I have about 50k which I would be able to use of my own money, should I use my money and loan the rest, or use a loan for all of it?

. - I am speaking from my experience as a restoration contractor here in Colorado, but regardless of state, many things will be similar.

I am aware of the restrictions enforced by the IRS on what I can and cannot do in terms of ineligible partners, etc.If would then want to BRRRR and restore my cash after refinancing.

I currently have my "extra" money wrapped up in a classic car restoration that will be worth $40k-$60k when finished.

I'm susceptible to wanting to massage the numbers since it's local, so it's great to hear a dispassionate viewpoint.
