CounteroffersIn the world of real estate negotiations, "counteroffers" are like the friendly back-and-forth you might have while making a trade in a card game.When someone wants to buy your house, they might make an offer.

PM me if you know some of the trades that can help us out.I love your enthusiasm for Butte.

I have 15 years in construction various trades, I am currently working with a new home builder as a quality assurance inspector.

At the same time, my husband, a Master Carpenter by trade, was laid off intermittently for almost 2 years.   

If you're in TX, you should be able to trade that for what we used to call a "whoopty."

I am a young professional and currently can't afford that but might be able to swing 10-15%.

Some have less time and spend more money as a trade off. 

Is it difficult swinging both jobs?

It will cost you $65-$75 per trade call, but well worth it to have major items covered. 

Trading stocks increases the risk to a portfolio versus buy-and-hold.
