@Will Mace the city asked me to submit an encroachment application. But to submit the application I need plans that include set backs and elevation height of the house. My contractor wants $15k (1st install) to approve the current draft plans and to provide elevation levels for the house. We agreed on $40k for complete plans through city approval which include engineering work, but I pay for soils and topo map separately.

Thoughts?

@Greg Dickerson can you give me some numbers based on your experience, length, and location? This would not be underground. Maybe 50 yards.

I am in the process of building a house in Los Angeles, hillside. There is a very high likelihood we need to reroute a powerline that hangs between the two parcels of land I own and planning to build a house on. Has anybody had experience doing this and can give me some ballpark costs for having this done?

I know the city will do it but how much will they charge? I’ve called them and a technician said $20-50k but would like to hear from others.

Sorry guys. Had to cancel. 

@Twana Rasoul commit first. Figure it out later. I’m a true believe of that.

That quote has to get you pumped up. 

Sounds good! I’m thinking semi monthly or monthly. 

Yes, noon time. Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Are you familiar with Duarte, Azusa, Glendora? 

I would like to hear how others are investing in San Gabriel Valley. Prices have certainly jumped although still cheap compared to the Westside. I personally invest in buy-and-hold properties but deals are much harder to come by.
