First, determine what your lender offers in terms of Loan-to-Cost (LTC) for acquisitions and the maximum Loan-to-Value (LTV) for a seasoned cash-out refinance.

Adding an egress window in the basement - making it a LEGAL bedroom - Cleaning it up and removing the coy pond that did nothing but breed mosquitoes - painting the siding to give it a fresh new look What was the outcome?
