I'd go for something VERY bright, clean, and cheery... something in the family of deep yellow/gold/orange-ISH, with a clear white trim.

Is there anything specific I should be aware of as far as the way lenders look at refinancing a property with a note carried by the owner as opposed to it being from another conventional lender?

I took on a couple of short term contracts (I was doing investor relations for publicly traded companies) to carry me through, then focused on learning everything I possibly could about real estate investing.

Some Lowes stores carry a finished hardwood that has some 50 year warranty and it's in the $1.90 a foot range.

I make it regular practice to teach my sellers about seller carry options and find out what their bottom line is for downpayments, who can more easily carry for a buyer as opposed to massive downpayments.

I could use the trunk of my car to carry a few things, but it just seems I develop a need for that one tool I don't have.

They produce a cash flow only when rental rates surpass carrying costs.There are other factors to consider, however.

I suggest you get a state contract, many office supply stores carry forms.

It does not take long to get to gold status though, which I think is 20% off paint.

Nice building & interior, I would've carried the wood flooring into the kitchen, too.
