- My first offer will be a good one and not a price we will need to renegociate unless something major is found (i.e. all the electrical needs to be replaced, plumbing, mold, etc... not carpet needs to be updated or walls need to be painted)There are other things that come to mind but these are the main points.

I took out a wall separating the kitchen from the living space to open up the floor plan and put a concrete counter on some new custom cabinets.

It leaked into the wall and into the dirt crawlspace of the home. 

Here are the details on our offers :2nd up was a 5 bed 2 bath house.3rd  was a property with a lot of cheerful writing on the inside walls.  

@Troy Fisher I have a German Wirehaired Pointer, who needs to run for a while or he'll climb the walls.

The realtor is telling me the bank isn't accepting financing because a bunch of the walls are opened up, and ripped out two of the three bathrooms (house had lots of mold, bank had a contractor come in and remove it all, but never did the rest of the repairs).

I'm a wall street guy by trade so can share my knowledge/experience w/r/t the financial side of investing as well as general knowledge.

. :) i'd get fired if i had a clear image of my head. there are plenty of people on here that have pictures of their buildings, their backs (@steve babiak ), their dogs, etc, etc.why would not allow me to put a picture of the Great Wall of China?

The glue down versions will need leveling and or filling of the grout joints but can be installed all the way to the wall.

I'd also change the color to something a little lighter (toffee or cappuccino).If getting rid of the deck, a nice stone patio with stone stairs from the house, short wall opposite the house, two nice open entry points on each side and a fire pit.The possibilities are endless.
