My friends and family caution me that what I'm about to do will ruin my life but I don't want fear of the unknown destroy a potential future avenue ahead for me.

So you can offer more for the house, and still come out ahead.

I've renovated many properties, most of them close to 100 years old, and it often takes more than you think ahead of time.

you will have to schedule ahead of time as far as a bp meeting, i have the same problem and cant attend cause it conflicts with my job but i will take off if i can find out early enough.

If he pulls the old unit out a day ahead we provide window units in the interim (usually in the bedroom) until the job is done.I've never had a tenant complain about this but if they did I'd probably tell them stuff happens and that's life.

There are decent vehicles in almost every driveway.

Hi BP, I'm 22 years old and sometimes may be ahead of myself.

Then, as long as you give yourself enough time between the accepted offer and the closing date, you can just go ahead and close with financing.

I like to plan ahead ;) I like the idea of showing the place once I get their notice to fill in any gaps. 

., there is the delayed financing exception that could be applicable to your situation, but you've already waited 3 months so I'm going to suggest it might be easiest for you to just wait the second 3 months to bring you to the six month mark.At this point you can refinance using current market value.When the appraiser shows up, provide paperwork documenting all of your improvements (excluding any improvements that need permits, that you didn't pull) and, assuming you didn't do any unpermitted work, go ahead and share the old appraisal with him.
