Without knowing much about your property or location I'd say a decent thick LVP with foam backing is a reasonable alternative to tile but the substrate needs to be very flat for either of those so preparation is key to a good result.

@Mark PageGenerally it's not optimal to liquidate a 401k account from an income tax perspective.If no exception applies generally you're going to get hit with a flat 10% penalty on the gross amount, plus federal and state income tax on the gross amount. 

Those membership fees vary from a flat-rate to per unit.Each have unique offerings but a lot of similarities.  

What I see is this is being sold kind of like any other guru program   its sells a book that sells the theory and in theory for sure it all works .. just like in theory you can build a monster portfolio with none of your own money like the gurus say .. or you can snap flip and make 100k a month wholesaling  with none of your own money.. or the guys are hitting the tax overage stuff hard again on social media.. it all works in theory.And for those that have the time energy and some experience I can see it working for them to.. but you sell this concept to brand new investors and I can just flat guarantee there are going to be a lot of folks that wish they never heard the term BRRRR.In our BRRRR days it worked because we were the gate keeper for the investors..

Now, even if they did sign it, they may still try to get it back and unless this is common for your area- some judge might give it back to them because it is "excessive". 

Here in FL at least, if the GC has insurance and his sub doesn’t, the GC’s insurance covers it, since in these situations the liability shi$ rolls uphill.But to be clear, none of their insurance covers a “botched job” or bad workmanship or disappearing or screwing you.

This is an expensive area right next to manhattan, so I dont want him to just make excessive charges for things that I can dispute. 

My vote is for a flat rate income tax (Total Annual Federal Expenses)/(Total Personal and Corporate Income) = Tax Rate.Everyone pays that percent of income as tax, and your return is five lines.

They would be able to earn from personally extending the trust and work in the situation- Sell the property, pay down the debts and holding the excess cash in reserve to launch your investing career from strength.Good luck on your journey, Shontae!

I guess you can offer the private money lenders a choice of either a flat rate percentage of return on their investment, OR a percentage of the profits-- that way, you avoid the criticism.
