Thanks all for the kind words, I go tomorrow to sign the loan papers, everything but the actual closing.
Tomorrow will tell the story as I am going to have to tell my friend all the promises he has made need to be in writing and notarized. Otherwise no deal. I know I can get the loan now so I can shop around for a house that may have a better feel. (Redoing the whole basement stairs, professionally clean the carpets and apartments, cut the doors for air flow, pay for the land survey, have pest control check it out, etc.) He gave me a list of what he will do, I just need something that will hold up in court, if he is trying to swindle me.
I am very trusting and caring for my friends but everyone at work and my family is worried I'm going to be taken and those fears have worn off on me...... but business is business and I must protect myself, even if it is a friend...... God I never thought those words would come from me..... I can give advice to others to do it, but I never have and I have been taken advantage of a lot in my life. Time for me to listen to my own advice.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
