Know thyself: (it helps when looking for your first residence)
- My time schedule is tight so I will need to find a residence in move-in-ready condition with no fix up required.
- I am not skilled at repair and rehab, and I will need to hire a handyman to complete most repairs.
- I have some skills and would like to learn more to save money on cosmetic repairs
- I have the skills needed to take on a true “fixer” with all the challenges that require “conquering”
