@Victor WassonI was just at crystal for opening weekend lots of fresh powder.  

I don't want to sound dumb ( Im as fresh as it comes ) does she mean how im funding it such as a FHA loan, or like a traditional bank loan with 20% down.

In my experience, the best masterminds are the paid ones, where the host has some incentive to continue to organize the mastermind and bring fresh content and speakers.I've been part of multiple free and/or casual masterminds that start out strong but fizzle out over time.

is it cleaned and painted and looking fresh??

And of course because it dries rock hard every time, doesn't stink like Beijing, won't require multiple coats that never seem to dry, doesn't rot in the can, is always fresh, and lasts the customer for years.

I've read that I should look to get this done now and let it sit in my account for a few months before looking to make my first purchase (bc if I end up going conventional mortgage for that they may want to know where this fresh money came from) but beyond that, I don't know much.  

Mowing stripes and fresh mulch are quick, easy, and inexpensive ways to get some curb appeal!

Leaving fresh transfers the options of: Purchasing (Riskiest), Rentals (Convenience), and stay in the barracks (Generally sucks). 

I would prefer to pay off the HELOC and start fresh allowing me to avoid a future headache.

I took it upon my self to do all the work and saved a ton (demo, new floors and tile, stainless steel appliances, fresh paint and renovated kitchen/bathroom) it was a lot of work but I was done in about 2-3 weeks with some long hours after my day job.
