The alternative was to hold and then refinance in five or so years when the market turns so that I can pull my equity out.

Suggesting the roommate is one alternative, but this banks on the assumption that she'll try and accomplish the locating of a roomate- in the meantime your expenses continue to climb-so then you're out another month's rent + eviction costs+ cost of time lost finding a new tenant AFTER you've given her a "chance".

A L/O is a much better Alternative than a Reverse Mortgage.

Brains are far removed in domestic situations and MOST of those are fueled by drugs and booze,,,most are high as a kite or drunk as a skunk,,,so reason and sanity are OUT the window.

An alternative would be to find a true turn key investment sales company.

I am looking for alternative company that also guarantees free and clear title after the auction.

There are far less costly alternatives out there.Barbara

NatGas is the only feasible alternative to oil, though it's not as inexpensive as TB Pickens suggests.He's finally driving home the REAL advantage - that it IS an alternative nd can be used to put Arabia back where it belongs - on the dunes, looking for WATER, not more oil to use as a weapon against the willing worldwide sheep.Israel will probably be attacked for having another handle on the levers, but they're rather used to being attacked now.

If so, know that as soon as you assign ownership of the property to another you have lost control of the job.Let's assume, which is probably the case, that you cannot afford to finance the work and the real estate transaction, together, without help.One alternative is to enter into a contract with yourself for the work prior to the sale, making the sale or assignment "subject to" the construction contract.

Anyone have alternatives that have worked for them?
