Two Questions:
1) If a house you are buying is appraised for $30,000 and you are buying the house for $20,000. Can you get a loan (mortgage) for $30,000 (so I can take the extra $10,000 to fix up the place)?

2) What would be one advice would you give a 1st time home buyer, that YOU wished you knew when buying a house.

Thank you!
