Thank you! Any recs on type of bermuda to seed? I’ve laid discovery Bermuda on football fields and love it
Home in W Fel Parish. 3 acres. Just moved a ton of dirt out of backyard into sloping front yard and graded it out. Got water flowing correctly now. Have been recommended zoysia grass for this type of soil. Need grass.

Options:
1-20 pallets zoysia direct from farm being quoted 6k for sod and 2k to lay(don’t want to spend this much)
2-seed it and lay down erosion control fabric to help firm up mud areas while seed grows
3-hydro seed? Don’t know much about it
4-sod perimeter of house and plant the rest of it

Any advice

Pole Barn Kits

Posted by Cajundave10 on 6/8/22 at 10:28 pm
Any recommendations on who to buy a pole barn kit from. Located in greater Baton Rouge area but willing to travel to save money. I am going to put the barn up myself. Probably in the 30x60 ballpark size.

Construction/Rehab Loan

Posted by Cajundave10 on 5/12/22 at 8:13 am
Buying a fixer upper as primary residence. Need loan. Here are details:

Location: South Central LA

Purchase Price: 245k

After Rehab Value: 450k

$ Amount Needed for Repairs: 150k

House Info: 5bed 3.5 bath 2650 sq ft slab home

Total amount of $ in project: 395k

I can come up with 80k or 20% of total value of home. Would like to finance the sale of the home and then do a 150k line of credit on the rehab as it may not need that much.

What bank/credit union do I need to be talking to?

First local mom and pop bank has me on a 1 year construction loan at 5.58%. Payments start 30 days after close. My biggest hangup is closing costs are astronomical: almost 12k.

Prepayment penalty is 24 mos the less of $400 or 2% borrowed

Anyone else hearing of a better product or any other recommendations for who to call?



USFD

Posted by Cajundave10 on 6/12/20 at 2:41 pm
This thing hasn't popped back yet but I feel as though it is going to take off. I already own some shares but just trying to get a feel for everyone else's thoughts.

It's the second largest food distributing company in the nation. Sysco and USFD tried to merge in the early 2010's and the courts ruled it a monopoly because they would have over 75% of the US business and therefore I look at these 2 as somewhat of a duopoly in the country. No one else touches them in terms of distribution centers and reach.

Anyone familiar with the company and what are your thoughts on moving forward investing? Thanks

Restaurant Stock

With some states completely open and most opening up like LA to at least 50% these may still have the type of growth we are seeing out of airlines, cruise lines, etc. and have potential ability to hopefully double your investment

What stocks would you be looking at?
To Me Bite: Is safe floor something sold in stores or only something a company can do for you.

That came out nice!

Not finding much on NDRA...What's going on with it?
Did you find a simpler/ more cost-effective fix? I'm looking to do this on a 2011 40 4 stroke Merc that I have been running into the same questions as you.

Thanks!
I am in the New Roads area. Looking for either a 40 hp tiller or a 70 with controls.

Can I find any reliable online pricing on such a thing?

Who do you recommend dealing with locally and what brand 4 stroke would you suggest.

Thanks!
Man that guy does some good work! Thanks for sharing. I’m looking for a used 40 preferably but will settle for a 25.

I go back and forth from wanting to buy a new 4 stroke to just getting a used 2 stroke that I know is gonna be dependable
Anyone have a go to for buying used outboards. Local, online, etc?

Recs on Batteau

Posted by Cajundave10 on 3/15/20 at 10:50 am
Looking for a lifetime boat for 2 man fishing. Grew up with a tiller and looking to stay that route. All-welded no rivets. Want something small and easy to handle out the water with low maintenance.

Got my eye on a 15-42 all welded with Merc 4 stroke with low hours.

Have y’all found a 15-42 too small for a couple of 200 lb men to fish on in rivers and bayous (not looking to run in much open water) Already have a center console for that type fishing. Looking to do more perch jerking with this set up

Thanks in advance
