The wildly optimistic bid for the work is a huge disappointment (and shock), i'm sure, but you're going to wind up at about 80LTV. 

It's like the wild west down here, but I have time to learn the ins and outs of the market.

It was wild.

@Adam Martin@Dakota Wilde Thanks for the thoughts.

I am curious about the size of the property and the location; if you're purchasing at 2k, assuming you're getting what you pay for, it must be a small amount of sqft if the rehab is 40K. this is me just taking a wild guess of what you're actually buying for 2K and how much money it'll take to get it fully rehabbed.

There are limited builders, limited building season and with the wild fires there is an increased demand for housing.

Headline reads, “ Inside the wildly popular forum where landlords try to screw you over”.It blows me away to such ignorant opinions that make all landlords out to be greedy people.

Other than that, love the fact that you secured a home that is a piece of American History, 1794, that's wild!

In general, Texas, has truly been the wild west for new hotel construction.

I hear that things can vary wildly from street to street there.
