I look forward to reaching out to the "experts" in here as I progress through my journey.

Hey Hari,I live in Fairfax right of Braddock Rd near Mason and grew up in here my whole life.  

She has seven ash trees in her yard.

The results can be seen in the pictures below and final numbers at the end.Sheetrock work and then painting in the den and refinished the pine floors under the nasty pink carpet.Tore out siding on the porch and added sheetrock, installed new fan and light fixture, painted, closed in a window that looked from a bedroom onto the enclosed porch...Managed to save the cabinets, added granite and stainless appliances.Refinished the tub, kept the original floor and redid the subway tile in the original bathroom.Added this closet in the master, refinished the floors after ripping out purple carpet in here, painted walls, sanded and painted woodwork and added the fan.A laundry room no more, added this great bathroom onto the master bedroom.  5ft double vanity with granite top, toilet, free standing tub and custom shower.After having 5 tile contractors no show, either for the bid or after I had given them the job, I used a stock fiberglass shower pan from Lowe's and tiled the walls around it to avoid any more delays. 

Hi @Richard Bavota , Welcome and you're welcome:) Don't be shy in jumping in here and making some moves in REI.

I've already experienced the rocky relationship between lenders and travel nurses first hand, but luckily it hasn't been a big obstacle so far.

I'm lucky and have an amazing intelligent friend who works for me in her downtime.
