and always check the foundation.....after that, youll know what to do around here in Indy

I ended up in Cleveland and Memphis and one of the companies I'm working with is yours :)I'm not sure I know enough to not lose my original investment, but I just got tired of making excuses for myself and felt like I was in a decent enough financial position (very grateful for that) to take a chance and if all goes poorly I figured I'd at least get a solid education and foundation to build from.

I have found at this point his advice is become less and less useful and seems to push heavy for giving him large sums of money to enter into partnerships.

Ultimately, the decision is yours, but it seems like you’ve got a solid foundation and just need to take that next step with confidence.

Both owners are in their mid 80's so they are too old and far away to handle the foundation issue.

Also have a foundation repair engineer confirm the status of the foundation.3) Request for the most recent survey of the property.

Holding onto that VA loan at 2.75% is a great call, especially with today’s interest rates.Regarding your next steps, it sounds like you’ve built a solid foundation and now need financing options that won’t disrupt your cash flow.
