Until you learn them you will spend a lot of time beating your head against the wall.1.

Is it reasonable for me to walk out of there spending 50 or 60 k?

So you would be spending 10K in materials?

Please help me before I spend the money on the lawyer.

It depends where you are located, but there is a hard money loan program that will; here are the details:100 LTC (between 65-75 ACV)10.99%~11.99%4-5 PointsSpec or Owner/Builder Allowed6-18 month maturity (extendable to 5 years)Interest Only PaymentsRepayment is based upon disbursed funds not total loan amountNot FICO Driven (equity driven)No Reserves RequiredIndividuals, Corps.

I'm sure there are diffeerences in many other areas, too--I just don't knowwhat they are.The prices are pretty similar from what I've seen, and I spend the money for sediment coveraage cuz we have hard water.Some co's charge less per visit--Mine ie $50.00 now, some co's are $40.

Spending the last few weeks on this website, I have come to realize that this truly is a business, and to become successful, I must treat it as such.

Except, I always just wanted (loosely put, wanted just touches the surface) to spend my life redoing ugly old houses.

Another thing I think would be just as successful would be to setup a relationship with a local furniture store where the buyers could go and spend $10-$15K on furnishings as part of the price of the house.

However on the surface it certainly would appear that way.I'm certain that you spend a large sum of money each year advertising to attract customers to your agency and I congratulate you on the job you did as I was initially attracted to your agency.
