In my case i would still be adding value to a lot of land but it will already be completed before i own it.

Its a 0% down payment loan but you do pay a $1,500 funding fee to use the loan which can be added to your mortgage amount.

That's just moving beads around on the abacus but could get the job done.

Get a 4 mm thick click lock vinyl wood look with no less than a 12 mil wear layer and make sure it has either an aluminum oxide or ceramic bead finish for scratch resistance.

The fact is that referrals here would be no better than google and would tend to gum up the works so to speak so we would not really be adding value by allowing them. 

Does anyone know of any files in the file place that will put this in writing or should it just be added to a lease addendum?

Better to upgrade the kitch or bath with that money where it will pay off.Women buy homes, goes the old adage, so spend that K on something she will appreciate, the insulation can always be added later, higher end flooring...not so much

You'll likely have some closing costs that need to be added to basis.

I typically follow-up every 30-45 days to see where the seller and agent stand; next time try building rapport and maybe ask to be added to the buyers list.  

You also want to make sure that if you are dealing with a bank or mortgage broker that you are talking to someone that knows how to do self employed loans, they are not the same as pulling a total from a W2 and not everyone knows how to calculate income and what all can be added back in to help your AGI.
