I'll concede to some like if I need to buy appliances but my pocket isn't that deep so I can't do like what others do and spend on rehabbing.

Live with the property for 1 year then decide how to spend your renovation money.

I don't want to spend time on this if he has actually worked things out with the bank, but I think this could be a good opportunity.
