You should be OK from what you've shared.Don't lose all your hair just yet :) Keep us updated.Josh

I just started using them this month and it is working out BEAUTIFULLY.

We'll have to put about $100-150K inside and out to make it beautiful (it's a Victorian), including some tenant buyouts (maybe even giving a tenant an FHA downpayment for their own first home!) 

Beautiful area. 

In fact, they want an appraisal so that they can determine whether you have 30% equity, meaning they are obviously looking at your existing debt compared to the market value.So, here you're just splitting hairs.

If you are doing a high end rehab or are staging a high end spec build I very highly recommend using some of their beautiful and well made products. 

Eggshell/off white/usually staying away from bold and beautiful.

I enjoyed taking the process of taking basically a gutted shell and transforming back to something beautiful. 

I was expecting a post that is similar to my experience as a "newbie" - daily trips to home depot, stalking craigslist to get an idea of rent in the neighborhood, showing up to work (my corporate 9to5) with paint in my hair, asking my husband every night, "is it worth it?"

I lost on that house over 100k plus worked for free, the house was beautiful (949 Trellis St, Jordan MN)But I didn't give up and built a second house in 2007, 2000 sq. ft two story inside of the City, address 4238 20th Ave S, Minneapolis, MN.
