How bad can a collection agency hurt your credit?
An air conditioning company I called one day to come look at my air unit is now charging me for basically doing nothing. I called another comapny and they actually did fix the problem (long story short) So the first company turned me into collections. I have great credit and don't want it to get banged up. I am disputing the case with the collections company. But I am worried if I lose, I will get my credit hurt especially over like $100 bucks. I know the smart thing is to just pay it, however thats not the point. I am pissed that they charged me and wanna stick it to the man. So my question is. How bad will my credit suffer if it becomes reported?

What's the best way to finance a condo and improvements simultaneously?
Hey everyone, I'm looking into purchasing a condo, and it's asking price is $37,000. I put in an offer at that price, and I'm hoping that it will get accepted. The only issue is that it's air conditioning/heating unit isn't functional, so that will need to be replaced the moment it's purchased, which should run about $4,000 or so. I'm a first time home buyer, and by the time the deal would close if accepted, I'll have about $4,800 in savings, while I'm asking the seller for 3% toward closing costs, and I'll likely have to pick up about $500 of the closing costs. I also have a 725 credit score and a debt to income ratio of under 5% before this purchase, being only about 20-25% with it, as I'm trying to keep minimal debt. The property is not FHA approved, because the condo complex doesn't fit its criteria, and everyone who has tried a spot approval on other units have been denied. I know that an FHA 203K renovation loan would have been good, but it's seeming like FHA won't be an option at all. I'm being told that right now that a conventional loan is my only option, and that I would have to probably finance the unit through an air conditioning company. I'd prefer not to do that, because of high interest rates and high monthly payments due to short repayment plans. I know that home renovation conventional loans exist, but I hear that they have specific criteria about the Loan to Value ratios, etc. and that going 90% LTV due to a 10% down payment doesn't leave room for the improvements. With that being in mind, I'm thinking that it eliminates the ideas of a home equity loan or line of credit. Does anyone have any ideas for options that I may have? I would prefer not to do a personal loan with a high monthly payment and gouging interest rates of 16% or more. If there isn't a specific type of mortgage that can do it, then any ideas with no payments no interest for 6+ months would be nice too, as I would have freed up money for settling in at first, and maybe even could just use my tax credit to pay it off entirely. If you do have ideas for a type of mortgage that may help me out, please name a specific bank/credit union/broker who offers it. I'm in Arizona, 85203 Zip Code is where the property is. Thanks! In response to Debra's comment, it's bank-owned and as-is, and honestly, similar condos in the market with a working A/C and everything else in great condition, updated appliances, cabinets, fixtures, flooring, and more like this one is, go for about $60,000 or higher. I'm set on this property and know I'll get no assistance from the bank. Any suggestions to make this scenario possible? Oh, and Amanda, 10% will have to go down on the property, or $3,700, and about $500 toward closing costs will still be due from me. That's $4,200 of that gone, with $600 left over, in the scenario that I go conventional. Oh, and the seller can only pay up to 3% of closing costs (both bank property who's selling it, and a requirement on a conventional loan, at least in AZ if not everywhere).
