I'm not referring to (though it would include) a wood floor such as hardwood oak, etc.

Talk to the agents involved and see if they have experienced anything like this, know of any other charities in the area, or would be willing to chip in a few points of their commesion to help this lady out. 3.

I have a client who works in the cell phone space; his company builds the chips that do wireless charging (every phone company but Apple uses his chips, and he said that Apple under Cook is a terrible company to try to work with).Anyways, according to him the cell phone technology has basically plateaued for the foreseeable future, as there is really not much else that can be done in the terms of technological innovation with the phone.

If it's good enough for the Dalai Lama, it's good enough for me.I'm happy to see you cashing in some of the poker chips for a beach and happiness.

What was supposed to be a 5 week project was not only not finished after 6 months, but the quality of work was so poor that we are now having to go back and re-do many, many things.We found plumbing in walls that had not been soldered.We found a bathtub that had not been installed with any support framing.We found electrical running to nowhere, and full circuits non functional.We found incorrect grout used in bathrooms that was already cracking.We found sewer PVC fittings in walls not glued.We found shower valves installed too far back in walls and then tiled over so the hardware could not actually reach the valves, requiring us to rip into walls to re-do plumbing.We found they absolutely destroyed the wood floors.We found brand new bathtubs had been scratched, chipped, and gouged because they were not protected and people had been standing in/on them and dropping tools in/on them.We found exterior walls without insulation.We found numerous doors hung crooked or even hinge bound so they didn't swing smoothly.We found ceiling electrical just boarded over and hidden.We found double tapped circuit breakers.We found vinyl flooring laid right over screws sticking out of the old floor, so the vinyl plank flooring had bumps in it clear as day.

Easy to replace one section at a time if required and doesn’t chip like some Laminate. 

I think most here on BP would agree this property would have to be in an outstanding, blue chip, A+ neighborhood to accept those numbers.

Some states are deed with redemption periods.Two good books, "Profit by Investing in Real Estate Liens", by Larry Loftis and "Zero Risk Real Estate", by Chip Cummings

I ended up doing it and it looks great (imperfect texture which looks like smooth walls with hand chipped indentations).
