Wow! J.J...
Thanks for taking the time to help a brotha out!
I was not aware that I could be told what my beacon score was, but I was only told that I had outstanding credit and very pretty figures. I will look into this.
The house has a 1-car carport, but I realized this morning that I need to ground wire my house, as it was not a requirement back in the 50's, and the previous owners never upgraded. I need to to that, and I figure it won't cost much for a little wire, right???
As far as the loan time and all, I am still considering a 15 yr. loan, though I have many of the executives here at work telling me of shortcuts around this or that, and the advantages of this and that, based on my proposed future of not living in this home for more than 5 yrs.
The oil furnace is not wanted by me. I would prefer as, but the hook up cost to the city line is $1200.00 because of the amount of line needing to be laid toward my house, pluse a $3200.00 furnace. The propane tank methode is roughly $2000.00, and that looks to be the best idea, but I had new oil line hook-ups placed before I knew of my oil furnace problem, and I may be able to just buy the parts to the furnace and insert them myself, which would cost only $300.00, as opposed to a $2400.00 new furnace.
I promise to keep everyone posted on this...and hopefully, the information accumulated in this thread will help more people.
