Buying my first/ last house. (restoring it to time capsule)

CONGRATS! first and foremost. i got my first house when i was 19 (2002) i had big dreams of remodeling and flipping. got most of remodel done and then got laid off. i ended up having to short sale the home. i also just plain stopped paying bills. needless to say my credit was slaughtered. fast forward to present day and i have been whoring myself out to fix my credit. i have finally got my score about ready but i want a thrashed hud home and do all the work myself. i have sold everything but my soul in order to get my down payment together. so once again congrats! you have a wonderful home and i am happy its your dream home.
