But, after having taken care of that immediate concern, it'd be even greater to then be able to get a regular 80% LTV cash out refi (after whatever seasoning time is required) on the very same property, because that would allow them to include the equity they've added, whereas that added equity (added via performing the rehab) is apparently not able to be included in the Delayed Financing's LTV.

Cute dogs!

While you would be a disqualified party to your mother-in-law's IRA, she is not disqualified to your IRA.That said, you would want to be very careful in having your IRA deal with the company, and any transactions should be at normal market rates.IRS rules prohibit any direct or indirect benefit between an IRA and a disqualified party. 

My first instinct to tell you to dump that dog if its losing like that. 

@Joe P. so you don't care if the the title is any good, marketable or transferable? 

I know where the water is getting in and have a sump pump taking care of it, however if there is any finishes in the basement, they need to be removed up well past any water intrusion.

And if your SO cares about you and your future together (again assuming SO is significant other) then he/she should understand your desire to make your career a bigger priority and seeing you less in the meantime.I vote stay put at PM company because in the long run, where you are now is the better play.

Hello BPers.Whilst walking the dog I started talking to a friendly old guy. 

@Collin S.Either have the guests clean up after themselves, or hire a cleaning company that will stop in take care of bedding and towels and such.How close do you live near the property?

All of the different brokerages I talked to had different fees so it is important to know how much you will be paying to work and that might make it easier to decide.Take care,Monica
