This business endeavorer is new for both my investor and myself and I want to get off on the right foot.  

I am now putting up my wholessale deals on a auction basis so the buyer can work thier own numbers and put thier best foot forward.

I see out unique advantage to him as being the high level of trust in each other and all 3 of us having a solid financial footing. 

This is a good time to get started investing on the right foot.

Problem is that most homes were built with only 5 foot side yards.  

You wouldn't come out of pocket for these cost so she would incur the entire 6% so that's another 15k off of the list price.Lastly, I wouldn't focus too much on the price per square foot as a rule of thumb since your dealing with a large variance there. 

It was remediated by professionals who originally thought they would be completing the re-installation of the  drywall they cut out in a 1700 square foot raised bungalow basement, 2 feet high along the entire perimeter and interior walls for a laundry, 2 bedrooms,4 closets,  a washroom, family room, and mechanical area. 

This might be because the window well was never properly installed and run into the weeping tile around the footings, or it could be that it have gotten a little clogged over the years with dirt.

Some people put a 3-foot privacy fence around their front yard an a 6-foot privacy fence around their back yard.

If floors aren't too bad then usually you can find someone to do a buff and recoat for around a dollar a square foot
