To repair the drywall then paint ,I think the $750 is on the cheaper side .  1 trip to look at it , 1 trip to pick up materials and repair and 1st coat of mud , 1 trip for second coat of mud , and 1 trip to sand and paint the entire ceiling .  

.- In theory you would have added the SAME ARV and potentially take home the same $40,000 Home Improvement Loan, which (being $40,000) should be enough to pay the LOC off that you used for capital for material and labour, as well as to pay yourself back for the down payment of the home.I’ve taken on the strategy of getting quotes for a few new windows, a new basement kitchen, and expanding the basement washroom, taking out the kitchen wall in the basement for an open concept with the living room, AND adding a 5 foot privacy fence in the back yard as well as adding gravel parking spaces from the back alley.The idea is gold, but I have a feeling that the Home Improvement Loan may only match what receipts/invoices I have for material bought and labour of the contractors.

Any share of experience, studying material or courses will be appreciated.

Look into John Fedro's material.

The deal was truly off market so I didn’t have a broker OM or any marketing material to browse through.

You can call it speculation but real estate goes up over time, almost a guarantee simple based on the cost of labor, materials, and the land it takes to make real estate happen.. not to mention, population growth.

But sometime people come here and see what materials cost at Lowe’s and think they can do a house for 40k and lose their shirt.
