In fact, they will be here tomorrow  to replace one that has a bad seal that we bought nearly 4 years ago.

Fortune Weavers has a meeting in Seal Beach.

Savvy investors/developers will know how to negotiate loans terms based on what they have to work with and seal the deal.www.RealEstateFinance.biz

You could work a deal and take a speed boat or airplane or equipment as collateral for a loan, just not the borrower's residence or other covered property.The two biggest issues are the ability to pay requirements and the RMLO seal on the note.ABTP must be done properly, even if you do a deal that isn't covered, you still have predatory lending and dealing issues and if you don't conform there on any transaction you can still be nailed, may be not under DF, but nailed just the same.The RMLO seal must be affixed to any covered note/agreement to be valid.

.- my fingers are also crossed- but I think you may have misread- I was the owner- I sold the house with the tenant- signed, sealed and paid for, we pulled the final bill to settle and discovered the city has not been charging my tenant for the last few years - the outstanding bill every single month has been zero - up till now. 

It wasn't too expensive because we did our own drywall (plaster) patching to seal up the holes used to blow in the cellulose.

Its a super old house (built 1900ish) and the basement is not completely sealed, the basement floods when it rains (which she is aware of), just everything that goes with an old house etc.

Plan of action: re-seal the light and shave off the bottom of the doors upstairs. and no more long tea time in the bathroom :)

That's the only thing I'm dead set on with the plumbing and marble budget.I would do ceramic tile all over and seal every year or so, or stained/sealed concrete if you can.I also use 20" ceramic tile for my counter tops with a painted/stained wood bullnose.  

And i seal the grout.
