Thank you! I appreciate it. I really want to get it done because the last contractor left it uninhabitable and it is starting to be vandalized since it is vacant. I bought it several years ago from a close relative and really don't want to sell the home for sentimental reasons. My first contractor said to leave it as a dump and just rent it out because with the housing shortage, it would rent anyways. I do not fancy myself a slumlord, but a vacant house is not a good idea either. There is a lot of substandard housing in Asheville, so I would like to fix up so that it would be a nice, but inexpensive rental for a young family since those are currently in very short supply there. Make me a good guy and still brings in a bit of coin. Maybe when I retire I might want to convert it to a vacation home or something.

If you know anyone who is looking for that sort of GC type work (certainly not high end like some of the guys post here) or even a plumber or electrician that you could recommend that will take on some small jobs...it would be helpful. My email is fintstone@aol.com

I know you do the production type stuff, but If you need something to mess around with yourself (to help fund your P-Car parts) while in between other work...I would be happy to talk to you about doing all or a portion of it. It is just off the west end of Patton Ave., near the Lowes.

If I have one more person who bought a late night TV course on "buying real estate with no money down" look me up in the tax records and write or call me about buying it or donating it to them...I'll scream.
