Hopefully they will do their best to identify all the issues but it's impossible to know everything without ripping the property apart.You can have a General contractor walk the property with you (probably going to cost you for his/her time) and have them spit ball an estimate but, again, that's based off just what you can see.The only way to not pay someone is to learn how to effectively do it yourself. 

What is the best way to buy this house.....1.cash-no money to do repairs and refinancing.......2.5yr construction loan 10% down on $81000 (with estimated unofficial repairs included with price of house) and refinance to 30yr fix.3.Do you all know of any lenders that can help us in this situation, or any private lenders that are willing to refinance.The Home Ownership Ball is Rolling now.......Help Me BP

I am interested in starting again, but I lack some information that will help close out my first deal. when I was doing wholesalers, I had couple seller leads such as; foreclosures, short sales, and one regular lead, but I didnt know what approach to take to get the ball rolling.

Another foreclosure through the VA, This is where my realtor dropped so many balls......So, he got the termite inspections 2 day late from my DD date. 

I’ll get the ball rolling with this one: 1.Accepting reoccurring Credit Card payments for rent.

You might even find something over in that Beaumont/Golden Triangle area.

But, you can find that golden mean in any market.

The other types are Lions (leaders, loud, extravert) and Golden Retrievers (loyal, mild and ok being in the background).  

You're talking loans with balloon payments and refinancing which is a different ball of wax.It's been a long day and I'm just not picking up what you're putting down so I'll bow out.

Now Im mentally ready to get the ball rolling towards my financial freedom.
