Hey folks,Unfortunately I'm having to demo a detached 2-car garage at one of my properties as it's beyond repair and needs to come down before the winter.

As I understand it, you buy a property that needs lots of work or has lots of trash and you clean it up, maybe do some demo and get it ready to be rehabbed.

. - exemption for removal of a unit from residential use....this also qualifies for demo.

In that case, you still have to rip up the interior drain tile system (which may be in-tact or not, but will get broken when you demo anyways) and install a membrane between the block walls, footings and slab floor.

I can search for properties, be a part of planning the remodel, meet with contractors, do demo work, contribute to the remodel labor...you get the idea.

Have done an extremely extensive full gut remodel (practically brand new home, literally everything updated/repaired from foundation, roof, windows, all exterior work, LVL beams to demo load bearing walls and create open layout, med to high end bathroom/kitchen renovations (master shower is floor to ceiling tiled in w/ double rain shower and ADA compliant, granite countertops, 6-8 person island, all new stainless appliances), all new electrical wiring, plumbing, etc., solid core doors, widened old 22' door openings to 24', new laminate wood flooring throughout, 5/8' baseboards/trim throughout, tankless water heater, tape/bed/texture/new paint on all new drywall), etc.I'd love to hold onto the property as I have no compelling event forcing a sale. 

I learned how to demo walls, remove popcorn ceilings, tile, baseboards, etc.

They are a full service remediation company and can then contain, demo, and eliminate the growth.

If demo is involved it's impossible to guess what's under floors and behind walls.

@Matt Moore One of my regrets in a rehab was not thinking to add a transom type window in a tub surround while demo-ed, like the upper 1/4-1/3 of your window.
