Finally the time has come to enjoy the fruits of my harvest and, just like that, after a 5 minutes conversation, all has vanished.As you can tell, I'm still licking my wounds.

There are event hard money lenders that will lend you the entire nut for the purchase and rehab, just pay them a portion of the property value once your build out is done and you refinance to a permanent loan.  

Here is who I am and where I am in a nut shell.

I've done a 5k Sq ft house as my largest one and that drove me nuts trying to keep the budget under control.  

Fun to see the fruits of hard labor!  

I've run into a bit of a snag I'm about to put another 20k down and then poof my nut is gone for another year.  

I thought it was pretty nuts.

The one that I use is a little disorganized and it drives me nuts. 

The local banks push this crap because current CD payouts and savings is about 1% annually unless you are locking a ton of money for five years to get 1.75% which is nuts.

The only thing this nut job has is a lease, but  there is an exchange for lodging that I can only hope was clearly spelled out.
