OfflineRecently in our local news I ran accros an article about a woman who had became ill because the heater in her home was releasing Carbon Monoxide Gas. Since it is odorless CO is especially dangerous. The poisoning occurred over a period of two years and caused mental impairment and nerve damage. CO can mimic flu like systems with head aches and sluggishness; that is why it often mis-diagnosed. Protect yourself, your family and tenants by installing CO Detectors in your home and in all rental property (per manufacturers installation instructions). Just as cars need maintenance and tune-ups, so do appliances. Have a HVAC Tech look at all fuel burning appliances every year. Be Safe!

I think you will agree that the way the money is managed on a fixer-upper can make or break the deal. Consider these suggestions for saving or leveraging your money.
1.Use 0% interest credit cards to pay for materials. Pay the balance off on resale before the default interest rate kicks in.
2.Buy supplies at Home Depot when they offer 3,6,12 months interest free financing. Usually you have to spend $299.00 to qualify (which is easy on a fixer upper).
3.Find handymen or contractors who want to establish a long-term relationship with you and are open to getting paid when you flip the property. Most will not be able to do this because money is tight, but if you never ask you never get!
4.Save money by buying overstocks and seconds on moulding, appliances, floor coverings etc.
Just a few common sense suggestions to keep you and your budget on track.
