We moved into this house quickly because three years ago we took in my mother who battles MS and our grandson when my daughter walked out and left him.

Yes, this will be my first build, but I am quick learner and willing to do as much of the legwork and researching as possible. 

I did a quick sketch up but I have no idea how to attach it. 

Hi If I was approved for a loan for 180k but I find a property selling for 140k that is currently livable, however I  would like to spend money on cosmetic updates. Can I ask the bank for the extra 40k to do whatever ...

personally I would have replaced it 5’hears agoI would not tempt having mold either for my safety nor my customer’s (renter’s) safety 

White collar tenants tend to move out more quickly. 

I've been trying to find a good buy in Fountain Square since February, but the one's I like are all overpriced, or are snapped up more quickly than I can arrange financing.I'm also interested in Irvington, Emerson Heights, Little Flower (thanks to the 10th Street redevelopment org), and parts of Crown Hill.  

And walk-In customers like me.

@Tyler BodiIt's hard to find good people and it can quickly become a money pit.

I just feel like, I haven't been able to raise my credit quick enough.
