@Mark Brogan,Yes - Few words in large letters that can be read across a highway, large phone number.Try for a "vanity" number, something easily remembered.

It's a crazy world.The most important thing to remember is this: never let favorable borrowing terms turn a bad deal into a good one.

Remember the plan going in.

People don't lend much money to people without credit - I remember the credit cards I got in college only had $400 limits to start.

wisconsin has pretty specific clauses you can and cannot have. there is a wisconsin lawyer with a faboulous website explaining what you can and cant do, from what i remember from the website, per some newer wisconsin law your entire lease can be thrown out if it contains one of 9 illegal clauses spelled out in wisonsin law. i am on my moble and don't have the website handy, try googling wisconsin landlord tenant lawyer. each state and even counties have different rules. that being said, 4 pages is to short. i am constantly evolving my lease addendum as situations arise, and i talk through it all at lease signing since tenants typicaaly dont read what they sign.

@Derek Diamond You should be specific about what you need people for - there are many different subspecialities in those professions.If you need an attorney for evictions, there's a mill downtown that specializes in that - can't remember the name but someone will.  

And remember, I'm sure you had a lot to do with encouraging him!

If you refinance (remember, with no lien on the property you actually have 100% equity), the money you get from the loan is all yours to use (as long as you have a means to make the monthly payments on the NLD).  

However, remember that panels are designed to handle voltages and currents.
