The original architectual intent is usually the best layout for any given house.

Arch degree, 8 years of digital fabrication experience, and two of my own multi-family projects in Cinci.My number two is head of maintenance for a University.Depending on what you need done I can bring along a group for labor.Demo, layout drawings, design, kitchen, bath, walls, exterior, decks, concrete, electrical...So, if that sounds about right we can carry on with a PM and or meet up.For me this would be a short-term experiment to see if I want to do more of this for others or just keep it in-house.

I'd love to turn it into a rental as its layout seems really great for 2 tenants. 2.

The reason I mention this is because the one right before this one (Jan. 1) I pretty well lay out my crazy ride to get to where I’m at today.

Once you have analyzed 100 deals, you're going to start to intuitively understand which ones are good and which ones are not even before you hit the final button to analyze the deal.

Even if someone knocked it down and replaced it with a brand new structure, the neighborhood layout is aweful and all of the surrounding homes are on top of each other, no privacy, not so much as a tree for as far as the eye can see.    

I tend to convolute some of this in my head a little too much, but what you're saying is incredibly intuitive. 

Are you planning on restructuring the existing layout into a more open functional space to add value?

The 2nd realtor I hooked up with was looking at structure, layout and was talking reno costs, ways of changing the layout to add a bedroom to add value and income.  

I have no idea of the DC layout, if I'll be near you either tomorrow before we head to Snowshoe or Wednesday on the way back, but if we happen to be nearby, might could grab some coffee!
