You may need to adjust some of your expenses appropriately.Have you inspected the property?

i offered 85k on a place i estimate no more than 40k in repairs so after closing and inspections etc.etc  i hope to have no more than 130 into the place. the way i see it with crunching numbers 130k plus 20% down closing etc. repairs and insurance, tax, monthly expenses. 

People buying AS-IS, cash with no inspection contingencies.

Maybe I'm mistaken, but wouldn't every prudent deal have an option period so you can get the home inspected?

Toe-kicks would be installed on all cabinets (more on this later).While the work was being done, I would regularly inspect the work at the end of the day.

However, the process has passed the inspection stage and just waiting for loan to approve and it will approve eventually.

You should not have had to pay for a 2nd inspection.

@Kendal West a VA loan is propbably not an ideal choice, as it requires the seller to do and pay for a termite inspection (I know; we don't have termites, tell that to the VA).

We just spent 10 days doing our typical "Spring upkeep"We sanded down solid wood kitchen cabinets, primed and painted them.Had a bulb burned out under the microwave.Fixed some screens on the screened back porch.Touched up some paint on the dock.Cleaned out flower beds.Steam Cleaned CarpetsFixed a bedroom door that wasn't latching properlyEtc.For those of you using a PM:Does you PM regular inspect to catch small things like a microwave light burned out?

I had a Section 8 re-inspection today on a property I own and the inspector was in gloves, which was new from last week when he initially failed the unit for minor things.
