    How much to build a 40 x 60 x 12?

    Looking at building a pole building. Thinking steel siding and roofing, 6" min concrete slab, 3 10 x 10 garage doors, 1 man door, 200 amp service, pad for a lift, water for washing cars (probably no toilet) and plenty of lights. I live in NW PA if that helps any. I may contract it out or may...

    In need of opinions.

    Our tenant has stated paying again, for how long? Who knows. She isn't paying anything towards the back rent, but she also isn't getting any futher into debt. Trust me I wanted to kick her out, but since all we had at that time was a verbal agreement my wife was pretty convinced we had no...

    I need some advice. Help please.

    Well I think a little update is in order here. My wife's best friend is STILL living in our house although she has started paying the rent and has for about 4 months now. She still owes us a ton of money which I probably will never see. As far as the other situation...we were told Friday that...

    I need some advice. Help please.

    Well I will say that I do feel like I am being fought at every turn. Every suggestion I make seems to be easily shot down for one reason or another. You guys have how I feel pegged pretty good. :eyecrazy:I don't think this was the intention initially, but this is the path we are on now.

    I need some advice. Help please.

    And like I said, if the tenant isn't paying enough to even make a house payment, then why are you paying for the tenant to live in your house, which is basically what you are doing if you are subsidizing the rest out of your pocket. These are only $26.95 if it would help :lol: Just kidding...

    I need some advice. Help please.

    We can afford the house we currently own, but we can't afford another house payment on top of that one. Couldn't seem to find anyone interested after 2 yrs so we took it off the market. I don't think the real estate agent really gave a **** about it. I asked her 3 or 4 times about doing an...

    I need some advice. Help please.

    Thanks for that. Yes I am 34. I would walk away from our current house, but I don't want to screw up my credit. We are probably going to relist it soon with a new realtor and a reduced price. Maybe that will help. I have been praying for a solution for quite some time.

    I need some advice. Help please.

    This was supposed to be "temporary", but 3 years is more than temporary. We are upside down on the house we own as the housing market ***** for sellers. I have tried to convince her to just sell it and if we have to sell things to make up the difference that's what we will do. It just seems...

    I need some advice. Help please.

    No money for the help, but free rent and utilities. We buy groceries alot of the time and pay some of his random bills when he is short which is part of the problem as well. Last year we paid for his satellite tv for about 6 months, granted we were watching it as well, but he bought it LONG...

    I need some advice. Help please.

    Hi all, Some of you may remember a similar thread recently. Let me explain my situation a little. My wife and I moved in with her Dad 3 years ago to be closer to work and to help out on his 260 acre farm. The idea was to take an already seperate 2 acre parcel and build a house on. Part of...

    What garage size would you recommend?

    I am in the planning stages and wonder what you all think is an "perfect" size. I know this depends on what I want to do with it. It will store my '69 Cutlass, my '11 F-150, and hopefully my Dad's '67 Impala. So I'm thinking 3-4 car size. Would 30 x 40 x 14 be enough or should I think more...
