What is it reasonably worth when you’re done?
Financing matters. Not every property condition works with every loan, and repair costs don’t automatically become part of a standard mortgage. Have the lender address the actual property and loan.
My personal hands-on repair and remodeling background helps me ask practical questions. I’m not a licensed contractor; real estimates and specialist opinions still matter.
