They thought they were permanent too :)

It permanently solves the problem of what the neighbors are doing in their yard, at least visually.

closing costs  will vary  based on  several factors  .....the location of the  transaction /  the  interest rate desired /  credit score / ltv …...best to  get in touch with someone familiar  with the are you are considering  ...get  pre approved  so that you can understand the numbers  better and  also  be assured you can qualify for what you want …...also - avoid the FHA loan and  use  a conventional loan if all at possible  due to the fact the mortgage insurance on a FHA loan is permanent and cant be eliminated unless you sell/ payoff the loan  or refinance at a later date

You will then need to renovate and refinance into permanent debt if you want to keep this property as a rental.

Having learned what I learned through the 6 I've done, if I'm going to rent it, I'll find an economical covering that won't permanently damage the hardwood and keep it as an option later.

Hi John, Must be on a permanent foundation here in California to qualify for financing.

I just wish you were a touch less confrontational about things you're actively asking to learn something about.And your whole positivity all-the-time kick...it reminds me of propaganda shots of the Hitler Youth and the Soviet Union's Young Pioneers, all those teenagers in line with wide fixed smiles enthusiatically doing calisthenics in the broiling sun, not a hint of the death camps or the gulags about them as they focused on an ever-more-brilliant future to come, the Thousand Year Reich and the Worker's Paradise.In this country, I have learned to deeply mistrust permanently positive people who melt into puddles and wail at the first sign of real hardship.
