So many great deals coming and going, be patient, have powder and financing behind you and the deals will come. 

Like any business, you need to have plenty of "powder in the keg" (available cash) to carry you through short term challenges. 

Try squeezing some graphite powder in the keyhole and then using the key to slowly work it into the lock to see if that helps.If that doesn’t work, maybe it’s time for a new lock.

This one's a specific tiling, plaster, and drywall tip:If you plan to use older thinset, older grout, older hot mud, older plaster, or any gypsum or cement-based powder not stored in an airtight container that's been lying around your house in an opened bag for three months or more, put on your respirator and run what you intend to use through an 8-inch fine-mesh strainer first.

There are better deals to be had in midland & there could be some screaming deals in about six months if you keep your powder dry. 

Some of the wholesalers are a little slower, as there has been some pullback with the cash-buyers trying to keep their powder dry. 

That's why I was nervous and want to sell quickly, I want to get some funds back as cash and have the dry powder to load up if another crash comes.  

Use your $140K HELOC funds for reserves, working capital and repairs - keep that powder dry as much as you can. 

This tile will be in the kitchen and powder room as well.Powder bathroom which is connected to the utility room.Backyard view.

Should i drop in some cash to get rid of the PMI as well or just keep my powder dry?
