When I bought this house I planned to live in it for 5 years and split. Circumstances have changed due to the job market and I will need to live here for at least a couple more years.
I've only lived in my house for 5 years and only have about 6K in equity.
I've added up the square footage (minus the slope) of the house at 1996. I searched the interwebs for calculators and I see that I'm going to need about 60 squares + other crap. Unless my math is wrong that's almost $4,500 just in shingles!
I've looked into teh HUD 203K, but don't think I'd qualify.
Besides a home equity loan anyone have any good ideas on financing?
