Are there any 203k contractors and inspectors that any of you recommend.

The lender sends an inspector to decide what work needs to be done, the GC does the work, the inspector comes back to make sure the work was done properly, then releases payment to the GC.

Permitting upgrades was interesting, because of their size, there are multiple code violations that were "excused" since they are grandfathered and the inspector could not recommend a solution. 

This would give inspectors an idea of what previous work or remediation was done on a property and verify the work resolved issue, was done correctly, safely, etc. 

Our agent was familiar with the inspector who did the seller provided inspection and was comfortable that he was competent.

To complete my due diligence, I want to get an inspection-does anyone local have a recommendation for a good investment property inspector? 

I apologized again and told him that I would help coordinate contractors to fix it and if he gets the building up and running that I would be interested in purchasing the property for the 250k.After speaking with the building inspector, I found out it has been vacant for a few years and they were the town was the ones who boarded it up.

Can anyone recommend a contractor and/or home inspector?

It can be a pain because they are very subjective... it depends on what inspector you get.

Would like to start looking at some properties in Howard, PG and Anne Arundel county MD but not sure who to take w me - real estate agent, general contractor, perhaps even a home inspector?
