Just acquired a property in a small North Texas very rural town. No building inspections or permits exist out there. The previous homeowner enclosed the back porch and was using it as a 3rd bedroom. By doing this the only window from the 2nd bedroom egresses into the enclosed space. I could probably rent the house as-is but I would hate for it to be an issue if there was ever a fire or something drastic. I'm considering shrinking the enclosed porch to allow egress from the 2nd bedroom window to the outdoors.

Looking for some thoughts and guidance. None of the walls I'm shifting around are structural so no issue there but from a leasable / liability stand point what are your thoughts?

Thanks Kevin,

Lake Highlands area. Just looking for subs to do smallish jobs not a full reno.

Good idea on the wholesalers, I'll reach out to a few.

Hi Guys,

Just getting started here in the Dallas area. We just moved back and bought a house for ourselves first. I'm a licensed Architect married to an amazing Interior Designer. Were looking to put a list together of recommended contractors to do work on our house first so we can vet them out to do work on investment properties. 

Currently in need of:

*Drywall 

*Painter

*Tile

*Concrete

Thanks
