@Phil SheltonYou would need a civil engineer to provide a drawing to get submitted to zoning and get a permit if it passes zoning is most common This also depends on the road - if it’s a state road forget it as it will take a year to get approved and cost a fortune - if it’s a local road process not as cumbersome but don’t expect this to happen quicklyIn some instances you may have to prepare sight distances etc to make sure it’s safe to add a curb cut

No lending institution or bank would be permitted to operate with those ratios.

If I get a permit cool. 

We have anything from multifamily & single-family properties that are already tenant occupied to permitted lots, so it works perfectly to consistently have something that can close in 45 days or less.

There is a provision in all my contracts that permit me to assign the contract to a newly-formed entity that I control.

Having read several books on the art of estimating over the years, I have found that most are good for a few tips that can help but for a newcomer to the rehab business can leave them on shaky ground. 

Check with the county and make sure it was permitted.

If before getting a permit you have to dance around for Code Dept officials/ city gov and crime is thru the roof, investments will definitely be low whether real estate or other, but it should be benefiting the city officials to keep things that way.

If you do not, I would still love to connect sometime when time permits.

Trouble with cities on permits?
