I need to protect the investment for my sons as I am out of work with Stage IV breast cancer, with the new treatments out there I could be around for quite a while.

In this early stage, learning as much as I can while preparing my finance, would be my short term goal.

At what stage I should ask for bank statements and tax returns?

Still in the early stages, but it's an official go!

I will put in new cabinets (lillyann cabinets), appliances, and granite or marble counters.A new roof will be going on.New interior doors (bought online, pre-hung at $39/door, basic 6 panel)New windows - cheapest bid so far for labor and materials is $6200 (including a large patio door, that is the most expensive) we are doing them to code, so that adds a cost.Popcorn ceiling removal, a lot of drywall patchesNew light fixtures, outlets, switches, updating some outlets to GFCInew baseboards (.70/linear foot at home depot)new plumbing fixturesplumb for dishwasherpaint interior and exteriortile on floor in bathrooms yard cleanupBasic landscapingDespite the "starter home" I will have the property fully staged.

Does anyone know of a staging company or where tp get staging furniture for Baltimore and DC?  

I have been haveing a great deal of trouble with a hud home ive recently one the bid on.im in the final stages of the deal.at the moment pretty much everything revolves around an inspection as the house assessed for much more then i bidded.a long story short tonthe eye the house needs tlc and general upkeep as its been vacant for 2 years.the issue im haveing is that the circut breaker has been completley removed.panels,box,breakers,the whole nine yards.hud WILL NOT allow any room for this.not even a temporary install.with. o electricity theres no way to get a 100% inspection as thats part of one..im at a very aggravateing stand still.any advice would be greatly apprciated!!

I'm in the early learning stages but it's going well.

I was at a stage where I was reading into setting up an LLC which was slowing myself down from reaching my main goal.

Mine is zero debt  at this stage in my life..
