Hi all,I'm under contract on a home in Cleveland Heights and inspector suggested a structural engineer look at a few things. 

If you get a higher income tenant (e.g engineer, tech worker, doctor, RN, etc) you may be able mitigate some risk.

A lot of them will only point you in the "right direction" and have you consult with a licensed professional in that field (ie. structural engineer, licensed electrician, plumber etc) if there are any concerns. 

They will likely also need to close any access points to satisfy city inspectors that the now capped chimney cannot be used to "vent" anything in the future.You will likely want a demo team that is much cheaper to do the actual demo and haul off, but you need either the mason or an engineer to stipulate how far down they can/should demo, while leaving enough room for the cap to be effective and maintain any structural rigidity into the future to not create more issues.Long story longer, I would call more licensed, insured contractors.  

Credibility and competence simply validate that choosing you was indeed the right choice.People do business with people they like.With an amazing personality, people will find reasons and excuses to work with you, even if you're not an authority in this space.On the other hand, if you’re a complete jerk, people will find reasons and excuses NOT to work with you, despite you being an authority in this space.So what we’ve done is make sure that GrumpyHare websites, out-of-the-box, show your traffic immediately who you are, what you’re like, and what it would be like to work with you—all aligning with the traits a motivated seller is looking for in a cash buyer.This is what I call the Conversion Psychology of Motivated Sellers.And this is the core engine of GrumpyHare.The result?

You’ll reverse engineer top-performing properties and get title & description recommendations, discover rare amenities in your market, & utilize competitor’s reviews to convert more guests.My expertise is in increasing visibility in search engines (and lead generation for law firms, roofing companies, etc) and not the AirBNB/VRBO algorithms.

I was a project manager and engineer first, and bought a house hack years before I was licensed.
