I have been looking for a credit card that offers the best points for purchasing stuff at hardware stores.

You could go with a self leveling liquid and then install the flooring but I have never worked with them.

Education is key, but, you will find out that a lot is learned and stored in the brain by actually doing things and finding ways of saving time, negotiating, making deals, etc.No need to panic, it will come together and we have all been there.You can do it too, and we are dragging you along with us!

How about a few flyers in strategic locations (i.e. local grocery stores)? 

Expanding on this market niche, the most recent real estate transactions I've participated in, have all involved sellers in their advanced age whom have accumulated considerable portfolios and are in the process of liquidating or recapturing some of their very hard earned investment and equity. 

The advantage is it is liquid, and you can invest smaller amounts.When you invest in a syndication, you become a partner in the asset, theoretically higher returns, cash flow, and tax benefits.

  - Any budget overruns could exceed the amount of capital a small PML may have and require the project to be refinanced into a new construction loan elsewhere while the project is inflight and this could pose challenges if the borrower doesn't have much skin in the game or liquidity.

For expensive verticles and cellulars, I fill a sheep trough with water and a really good dose of liquid laundry soap and leave the blinds soaking for a couple of days.

I checked with every furniture store in my area and they all said that they have done staging before but it had never lead to any referrals so they would no longer do it...
