I have already been in contact with Shawn Huss over at Chemical Bank thus far.Thanks!

Hi Everyone,I have a company focused on building non toxic, mold free, chemical free homes.  

Having had a pool for 14 years we’d spend months on daily care and by august always have an algae bloom in it and have to hire someone to fix it and clean it which would cost around $1000 despite our chlorine levels and other chemical levels always testing right.

For example, our garage was built in the 1940's but the City STILL required that the concrete be tested for moisture percentage (concrete takes a loooooong time to cure), pass that testing and then we had to have a special moisture barrier resin applied by a company who specializes in that type of chemical application.

Some things I discovered in my search as a newbie =)Detroit, MI - 15.1% rental yields, hip new destination for millennials, and large companies (Pfizer, Ford, Chemical Bank) moving there. 

In the recent past, you had Nortel (RIP), and on the WABAC machine, Tandy.Arguments for: I agree with many that have been brought up in this thread - liking to solve puzzles and follow procedures, bigger salary means more money to spend on RE investing, having to go into management to make the really big bucks, having to relearn everything frequently, a bias against older engineers.I think another thing that affects software people, more than than ee/mech-e/civil/chemical, is outhousing and H1B. 

A little bit about me, I graduated college with a Chemical Engineering degree and have been working as a Project Engineer in the automotive industry for almost two years now.

what they could call utilities could be electric, gas, propane, trash...any of those items.well will have an electric expense, and the upkeep of adding chemicals, testing the water and different reports to the state

They have dip-strips that test for multiple chemicals and contaminants. 

We just have to keep doing our thing.....while just shaking our head the whole time.Side note....on our concrete pours here, as you probably know, the concrete heats up as it’s being mixed in the truck as the chemical reaction does it’s thing, and on gov’t contracts where the concrete can not exceed 90-95 degrees before being placed.....we have to start at 3:00-4:00 am, and the concrete companies are used to it.
