I could sell my house to get the funds but the value on my house continues to grow (located in the up and coming Avondale hotspot) so I would hate to cut off that asset at this time.

I am trying to cut down on my expenses though by making small changes like eating at home instead of going out, skipping some trips w/ friends, etc.

What I would do....use cardboard or construction paper to make a template that fits the contour of the tub perfectly.....then transfer that template to a plank....mark it out with a pencil etc...... make the big straight cuts as needed.

A partner might want a cut of the deal or they might be ok with you paying them a % of interest on the loan they give you. 

Those costs can cut into your returns. 

The flooring was down when we did the kitchen cabinets so it took some load & one of my guys was cutting boards on the flooring but again no scratches.Good luck

I had a single mother who couldn't afford the daycare after her work hours at Mcdonalds were cut because she didn't have a car to get there and didn't always have someone to watch the kid.

"Done" she said.I bought Hardi panels and cut them to replace the skirting, found a suitable 5 gallon can of "whoops" exterior paint at HD, bought a toilet for $5.00 and a faucet for $5.00 at a yard sale and a discontinued pedestal sink at Lowes for $20.

As we know housing doesn't paid for more garage space, with the proposed cut around $9.5 billion in 2018, my rent is not getting SAFMR (small area fare market rent) if I include 3 car garage.   

My plan is hoping that they accept and that the appraisal comes down to 330k-340k and then i kindly ask the seller to cut the price.
