@Brett SiegelWelcome to the community and be ready for a huge amount of information at your finger tips.

Quote from @Zalman Schurder: Hey guys,I am closing on my first fix and flip in Tamarac Florida.I am renovating the entire home, adding a full bath, new floors, a new kitchen etc.Where can I find ideas for current designs, colors, flooring, paint, and kitchen layout.Any general advice of what to do or steer clear of?

My credit should be the highest allowable also and I shouldn't have problems with approval.Ok, i shopped about 80 lenders (based on Fridays rates, market is closed so no live pricing)Conventional Full Doc loan you would be at 7.875% if you put 20% down (you said what the house was worth, but not your purchase price). 

I asked if there was anything else we could try, he got very angry and demanded I pay him in full.

I've written similar posts a handful of times, and there are other threads in these forums that discuss investing in Japan.  

Take some time and post pics of the various rooms.

I would appreciate any tips or experience with any creative financing options!

I have a Youtube link in my profile with some tips and would be happy to have a call sometime to discuss your wants and needs out of an investment property.

The discount on the full hurts!
