I have no objection to footing part of the bill to get over the hump.

Certainty <$100/sqr foot.

But personally I wouldn’t touch SFR with a 10 foot stick knowing what I know.

I am trying to get my foot in the door here.

So far, you have not really shot yourself in the foot, probably not, but you have constructively extended the obligation by accepting payments beyound the due date, it should have been modified...whatever...You need to see your attorney, you can make a demand and begin foreclosure.

We put up a 6-foot privacy fence for $3000 for the eventual buyer; we should have done it 2 years ago.]8.

I spoke with a general contractor, who said the cost per ft. starts at $100 per foot (no grantite, stainless, etc.).

I have a full basement whre my cleanout is so we are talking about about an 8 foot dig down to reach the sewer line from the outside.

So if you could refi your current 2 unit to conventional, buy a new 2-4 unit and OO using FHA financing, AND you had 25% equity in the 1st property = bingo, you will be able to include ALL that rental income(per Johns formula) in your dTi formula.

Also what the average price per square foot is.
