Hi, I'm a 27 year-old engineer looking to learn about commercial real estate investing in order to acquire properties that will provide a steady source of cash flow that will allow me to continuously add to my potentially higher-return stock positions, as well as cover living expenses. 

Buy or inherit and hold all their lives while working the properties for income.I've seen teachers, firemen, software engineers and all sorts of people utilize both strategies successfully.

I have chosen my niche which will be students flats.At the time I am studying construction civil engineering and I want to buy my first house next year (3 years left of school) in the big well known city among tourists and students in one of the european country.

With previous flooding an issue you should hire a structural engineer to determine the structural integrity of the buildings.  

With engineering I'm approaching $30,000 to repair.

Can anyone send me names of structural engineers and contractors who can do this at a reasonable price?  

I plan to take the cookie cutter approach, having about 4 or 5 engineered plans, a dedicated team of contractors trained and experienced in this kind of construction that I work with exclusively, as well as an engineering team in place to consult with when needed. 

I have a full time job that I love as a product design engineer and I want to fulfill my other dreams which is owning my first Multifamily home.

Engineer transactions.
