Doing a tear down in South TX
Does anybody have any useful links/references when it comes to costing out a tear down? I was thinking of buying some old 1930 house in a historic part of Brownsville and just having a demolition contractor pull permits, and remove the mess. Then I could either build something new or sell to a builder/developer (assuming there are any).
My advice to anybody new is to find somebody doing what it is that you are wanting to do and get to know them. So I guess I am wanting to reach to some somebody in TX, really anywhere in TX, that has any experience at all doing tear-downs.
@Jay Hinrichs please chime in and tell me 3-4 reasons why this might be a really bad idea.
