Answer 1

I agree with whatabou-----Please call not just one, but three real estate companies in your area. Get written bids on the amount they could sell your place for. And, their business cards. And, possibly have them (or the one you choose) talk with your landlord. Yes, you have lived there a good length of time, however, for the money you have spent fixing your apt. and today's prices, you should be able to get more than 20,000 for it. I wish you the best. Take care.

Answer 2

I don't think so....Call a real-state agent and ask them how much it would cost to get an apartment like yours.
