If there ever was one thing that dissuades people from purchasing a home it would be the necessity to perform a multitude of repairs. After all, who wants to purchase a home and then invest tons of money into repairing the property as well as making the requisite time commitment that … (1 comments)
This is my first post this is some great information I read and wanted to pass on ,
Okay Mississippi lenders--I hear one thing, then I hear something entirely different. I hear that it is still possible to get FHA w/rehab like or similar to 203K. Then I hear from a bank that no bank would touch a property if it has certain issues. Which is it? Must you … (3 comments)

Here is my pick of the day for a quick flip to make some cash in Raleigh, NC.
Dear Diary,
If you're in the market for your first home but your budget can't afford that beautiful, large, brand new home, consider a smaller home or a fixer-upper. The trend nowadays with first time homebuyers has been to buy a bigger home in turnkey condition. However, this may be out of your price … (0 comments)

You've seen the real estate listings: "in need of TLC," "fixer-upper," and "great potential." While some cringe at the thought of buying a house that needs to be renovated, others see a chance to get a great deal on a house they can customize and make their own. Thanks to recent … (2 comments)
Are you looking to purchase a foreclosure or fixer property? Or are you looking to remodel your current home? Money has gotten very tight as sources for Home Equity Loans have dried up and construction loans are hard to find and/or qualify for.

In a market where there are so many homes for sale that are in poor condition such as Bank Repos and Pre-Foreclosure Sales, Mold is often lurking.

buyers looking for a fixer upper. I think
that what many of them are looking for is really a less expensive way
to achieve homeownership. One alternative to buying a house
that needs major work is … (6 comments)
