Quote from @Yvonne Wang: First time working with a contractor here.

I have one lender that will go up to 85% but need 720 credit or better and 1.25 DSCR no rural areas

We built a single family home version of a 2 bed 1 bath with surface parking at cost with no profit all in with land for 175k in newark ohio, a suburb of columbus ohio. when we push that to 3 units and closer to the city for our build to rent model the numbers go way better. a 30k slab for a single family home is 30k, a 30k slab for a triplex is 10k a door. we designed a 2 bed 1 bath design at 668 sq ft and it's very good layout even I would live there, but I would never build anything that small again. there's no economies of scale. you need density and shared lines, resources, shared roof shared slab, shared windows, etc the cost goes way down.

If you did not, then she has no right to that space.

No?

The stock account is tanking, you see no hope for it to return, and you want to preserve the remainder of the principal;3.

And, no, the courts do NOT see it that way.

One didn't make your list.1) I see people all the time raising money for real estate deals but they call it a partnership either because they are ignorant of the law or they are trying to avoid paying for all the legal work. 

Plan on staying married no matter how rocky it gets, work through it, it's worth it.
