I bought my first property while I was a 21 year old senior at the Ohio State College of Engineering.

Talking to local civil engineer worked when we did it in Montgomery county.

This trait is the motor, the engine on HOW that 'fuel" is converted to forward motion.

I recently graduated from the University of Washington with an engineering degree and will be starting my first full-time corporate job on the 23rd of this month.

If anyone has any recommendations for an Architectural Designer or Structural Engineer who can help design and put the plans together that would be awesome.

Similarly, using unit costs from your engineer, do a SWAG of the costs for clearing, stripping topsoil and balancing the earthwork, etc.

I went to school at Ohio State for engineering and have a minor in business and computer science.

I think I'll just pay some sort of consultation fee and have a engineer or architect review them and make any necessary corrections.

Get a few quotes. and if you do not do it, when you go to refinance into a long term loan the appraiser will likely mark the report as "subject to" a structural engineer report of the foundation. and you will not be able to refi until you have done the  work that is required. 

.- Consider hiring professionals like architects, engineers, and construction managers to help with the process.This process can be lengthy and involves several steps, but with the right guidance and preparation, it can be successful.
