If you are set on diversifying, choose a style that helps you reach your own goals.

Finding out city zoning for new construction on this property, finding out about environmental impact, speaking with the development head in the county, also getting information on the water sewage and electric for the property and what it’s connected to.I offered one of the investors, let’s do the flip.

The old wood siding will need to be replaced as well because of combined termite and squirrels going buffet style on it.With all that being said I'm wondering if anyone has remediation experience with major termite issues.

If that's the case, you can't do any renovations until you have it professionally deleaded or it would be flagged for Unauthorized Deleading and you can get fined and the property would never be able to get a Lead Certificate, only a letter of Environmental Protection that states you did illegal work, got caught, then had to pay a professional to clean up the mess.

That said, for small jobs like a few doors etc a paint in hand style one would be okay for a while.

We also underestimated the environmental component of the renovations leading us to have to expense testing we had not budgeted for and amend the project's final sow to work around those challenges Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

the cape style home was picked through like you wouldn't believe (walls town apart to get to piping, windows removed)  it was a shell of a house that sat empty for 4+ years bofore tax auction.   

Talking with a couple of environmental companies around here they are telling me insurance/mortgage company will not go for the property with an underground tank that does not have the proper close out documentation.
