I need help for DP, his situation is getting pretty crappy and I am out of ideas..

So he owns his home...has about $230K still owing and the house is worth in a good market around $800K...he got is valued recently and they told him $600...crappy market plus it needs lots doing to it

The reason it meeds lots doing and it looks like a disaster zone is because he is renovating...reno's that he started before he got really sick.

Now he's really not doing well (he has cancer) and is struggling to finish. What would take some people an hour is taking him a day at least.

He can't work anymore so has no income other than disability pension which is not enough. Mortgage repayments are now $1800 a month. He has a loan and there is about $30K left which is what he is paying the mortgage with.

SO here is where I need the help and advice...he doesn't know what to do and I don't know what to tell him anymore...

How does he finish the reno's cheaply? Do you think the bank would give him some time off on payments for a while? He doesn't want to lose the house but knows it's better to sell once renos are done. He also doesn't want to lose it to the bank obviously...

It's awful knowing that what he takes away fromthe house has to last him the rest of his life potentially.

Soooo...any ideas?? Hit me please!!!
