Got a story about an awesome contractor you worked with—or maybe one that didn’t quite cut it?

See the fact that mortgage rates are up about 1% from Oct when the fed started to cut the fed funds overnight rate as evidence. 

I have a few commercial bank contacts, but concerned they may just cut me out of the deal.

Just have two small rooms to finish, grout and cut tile pieces for edges.  

I realize I am not cut out for the entire REI process of consistently finding multiple properties for particular exit strategies. 

At the end of the day; you need more money to do something like this.MAX LTV on new builds is 80% LTC, Meaning if the build is $550,000 and Land is XAdd ($550,000 + x ) * .8 = LOAN AMOUNTYou would need to come in with MINIMUM 20% of the cost in addition to closing costs and reserves, $80,000 is not going to cut it for this project.

The foundation was already approved, permitted and finaled years ago for a 3400 sf house, and its solid and I won't be building directly on the overhang edge; but rather back away from the edge a few feet to prevent any load issues all the weight will be on the longer sides of the existing footing.

Although Baselane doesn't have a formal app I find it very mobile friendly, I use it on both my iPhone and IPadI think Baselane has a slight edge over Stessa so I think I'll start with them and switch to Stessa if it's not working for me. 

This has created a "shared driveway" with the neighbor making an ugly curb appeal, not to mention cutting their lot in half.

Two of the kitchen cabinets were also cut in half.
