Locally, you have to hire an engineering company to do the surveys, elevations, environmental reports.Sit down with them for a talk about what is involved.In my local, a 3 way split is pretty easy (cost, about $5,000).

I've tried to get it removed from a flood plain but FEMA has not established a Base Flood Elevation for my area.

Elevators will also be important for your rental considerations.

To market them he installed elevators from the garage to the top floor.

Out here it is all about elevation.

First of all - what is the purpose of getting the elevation of this spot?

elevations credit union!

Consider things like services paid like, the company, or the manager if its self managed, pest control and dumpster fees, annual elevator inspections can easily be changed with good management.

Will it require an elevator?

@James MarshallHi James,Depends on where you buy your SFH, many areas where turn keys are offered the quality of tenants are marginal, and the better SFH don't cash flow, so why buy especially since the market has elevated the past couple of years in that space.
