Long story short I’ve been through Foster Care & now in an Independent Living Program.

I highly recommend getting that done in the form of a subcontract agreement - short form or master depending on the dollar value of the contract.You need to incorporate a schedule of values breaking down the contract sum into tasks, and with an accurate cost assigned to each task.

search=Proverbs+1&version=KJV(Disclaimer, I have a man crush for Christ, I am biased being that I feel I have been blessed beyond anything I deserve.)If you read Proverbs (short read) and feel it was of value mention it and I will follow up with another one of my favorites.

Currently, I am living in New York but plan to be moving to El Paso, TX shortly.

@Ben MiculobUnless you specifically say short close all cash, you would assume the standard time to close, which includes 7-10 inspection and then financing period.

@George Skidis if I interpret your comments correctly, your strategy all along was to have your properties paid off in a relatively short time frame (10 years). 

@Dillon SealHard money lenders typically only lend for short periods of time.

On it...I will have numbers shortly.

Chanel,Hard money is good for short term situations. 

In short, self management in KC is the way to go.
