CL Dyer ,

Home.

Good afternoon, I just found out I could get approved to buy a home for my family and I, but I am having trouble coming up with $7000 by the end of July and 10,000 when the house is finished being built in six months. My issues are I have one daughter in college which I am helping to pay for and also I was involved in a accident which right now I am on short term disability for one more month spending money just to survive, which was our money for the first half of our down payment.
