hell, if thats what u wanna do, quit school and get to it. save your money. you dont need a degree. just a good head on your shoulders. you could probably even use your overage check towards a down payment to get started. although you may not need it, there still are zero down programs out there, especially for first time buyers...you'll just pay a higher interest rate...though you can always refi later to get a good rate.

there are lenders who will finance "hard money". hard money is when the bank will finance generally 70% loan to value of the building based on what it will be worth when you are done remodeling. you usually have 12 months to do what you need to do before the loan is due in full. you can also refinance before that time is up which seems to be the way you would want to go. i know of one local lender who specialize in this type of financing.

bland i know....plans are in the works

lol...thanks MTS

my home in lakewood

awesome...good luck with that....im a union carpenter myself if there's any assistance you may need...ive worked on a few restoration projects and finish work is my specialty. jus throwing it out there. :wink:

i always wondered what is the "Pit"??

the address is for the powerhouse....a wanted listing on cleveland.com list it as contemporary american cuisine

i dont believe indiana jones was ever "young" in any of those films

20+ units sold....what slow housing market? :lol:

now that work has started on the rebuilding of detroit ave. does anyone have any knowledge of the parts of the Main Street program that were implemented. i know this project was pushed back because of this program.

i'd be in favor of selling the turnpike as long as all the proceeds would go to developing an extensive passenger rail system in ohio. thats the only way i'd support it.

interesting...this thread is 50/50 car versus all other forms. if i could use public transit more i would though my job makes it impossible.

dads side irish-danish..... mom's side irish, slovenian, bohemian, cherokee indian

attention downtown housing developers. billboard advertising + aggrevated drivers sitting in traffic forced to stare at these billboards and ponder the thought = possible homebuyers

i believe that along with councilmen, state reps, congressmen, and any other person paid by tax payers in their city, state, village, district, etc...it should not only be law but a duty to live in the said boundary lines of the people who pay their salary...the tax payers.

what is this "big news" that you speak of?

i dont believe hopkins needs retail...in fact i dont know what ails them and how they could get to 1 billion before any bells went off. ive been to quite a few airports and i find cleveland as one of the cleanest, easy to navigate airports. when i need a beer i can find a bar. when i need a paper or magazine i can find one. there seems to be plenty of retails options aside from those. what do u want a wal-mart there. just manage your money and keep it clean.

the Believe in Cleveland signs for some reason remind me of Budweiser....maybe its the italics i dont know
