Blinds.com has a good selection of blinds, solid guarantees, and great customer service.Tile can be slippery.Renters can hurt themselves on almost anything.  

Is there a guarantee to success?

It does not guarantee it's records in themselves are accurate or current.If there were unpaid property taxes, the tax lien could have been sold.

The woman I am working with said that with the current market, she thinks the bank will refinance but can’t guarantee anything.

Holding on to it pretty much guarantees I am losing money other than the tax advantages and future appreciation/loan payoff.  

I think if you break every item into a separate contract, it will cost you more money, as the contractor will not have the guarantee of all of the work and thus charge accordingly (i.e. setup and hassle charges for each task).

:Thanks again @David Dachtera, if my credit score ever drops below 800, I'll keep that in mind.It will - I guarantee it!

Has anyone been able to finance any of their properties without a personal guarantee?

I noticed at the bottom of the web page on auction.com that they have the right to counterbid your offer when you make a bid on one of their houses.
