Lets do coffee sometime! 

It doesn't seem like you're in a position to shop, so just something to keep in mind for future reference.Also, when you're talking about a 30-year fixed loan, if one lender tells you they can do something that several others said they cannot...it's a huge red flag.  

So if anyone is looking for a help around the area, or someone to work with, or just someone to talk shop with, Im am here!

Thanks again, if anyone wants to meet to chat inbox me and we can grab coffee.

Would love to talk over a lunch or coffee to someone who knows the ropes and possibly has Los Angeles/California expertise.

If you ever want to grab coffee and talk shop, give me a shout. 

If you ever want to grab coffee, let me know.

We will have to grab a coffee sometime. 

I'd be happy to meet for a coffee sometime if you're interested?

Some numbers for your perusal:Purchase price: 70kLand value plus shop 35kMoney this house could easily eat before all is said and done in fixing it $70KValue if we poured $70K into this house  $120-130K todayValue as-is  $55KRent the house could fetch if we dropped $5K into it  $800/moExisting mortgage $622/month pitiCould refinance to a piti of $500/monthI ran a scenario where, if I dropped $10k to stabilize the condition of the house and $25k to convert the garage to a studio apartment (rent for $300), it would be around 10 years before I could break even.Thanks for any advice or insight you can offer as you play the what-if game with me.
