No, haven't done anything on the financial side other than save up a sizable downpayment. Between cash and the equity in my current house, I could likely cover the cost of purchasing this project and finish it.

Applying for pre-approval goes pretty quick online, as far as I know. The approval process is automated, and I think I can get approval in as little as a day. That said, I probably should start the process now. I've got 90 days left on this apt lease, and approvals last about that long.

Last night we found a move-in ready home we like, so I'll have to pursue this option now too, which involves applying for a conventional mortgage.
