You may need to do a few BT to get to $30k- apply for fee new cards with sign up bonus and 0% interest promo that way, you can fund most of your rehab and reward yourself with free travel after you complete your project- get HELOC if you have enough equity in your house- re-finance your car if it’s paid off and pay it off after the project is done (Penfed sends you a check for a car)- apply for Business Loan if you have business
