Maybe just under $600k at 95% accounting for closing and keeping some (tight) reserves.

But if your budget is tight or your home only needs minor updates, your real estate agent can help you think outside of the box by suggesting simple DIY staging tips to help your home look its best.Bottom LineStaging your house properly can make it much more attractive to buyers, but it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution, and every home shines differently.

This is your first property and you want to set the deadliest deadline (Your first guest) without knowing anything.

.* No calls accepted to review receipts: I have asked Jenny several times for the last 3+ weeks to get on a call to review the receipts and all of the items that are in the house, I have given her several deadlines to resolve the issue, she has never accepted any of my invitations to join any calls despite me pleading her to do so as my credit card payment is now due and has a 29.99% interest rate if not paid.I have found several people that were also affected with just 2 facebook posts.

I'm sure there are many more experiences where the contractor hasn't fulfilled their scope of work and gotten away with rushing the project to meet the deadline, And, I don't want to be as naive to say that I'm that 1% who can have complete quality/operational control, but I'm confident I can establish a system and hire independent inspectors to review the contractor's work.
