Sandi, that sounds very interesting!  

General consensus around here that I have seen is that:Buy and hold guys don't want the liability of a tenant getting sick or claiming to get sick from exposure to some area that missed treatment, or the soil in the yard if it has some unknown contamination.And flippers aren't willing to gamble that they got it waaay low enough to take the back end discount that they will need to likely take to get a end buyer to purchase.That is what I've seen pretty much every time this question has been posed in the past.

He also told me to monitor the soil under the house and make sure it is not constantly wet if so should make more vents so it can dry off.

Bp family I am in the Washington DC area while doing a addition they asked for a soil test while getting my blue prints from the permit office does anyone have a idea what it will cost and who does then for a 40x20 addition thank for help

During their removal soil samples were taken and dirt was removed until the readings were within permissible levels.

The one I’m looking at is 5.44 acre the next lot is 6.44 acre for sale for 49,440 the third lot is not for sale and the owners of the property for sale have a house at the end of the driveway .with that being said if I made any since of it at all It’s been on the market 1 week concerned that $44,440 is to much seeing it for sale in 2010 for $25,800 and 2011 for $25,800 ConsOne drive off main road have to get rights to drive way for lifetime There are restrictions but not bothering me Pros city water at main drive electric is at the main drive Seller is getting it soil tested septic approved and paying for it

Most shifting or settling has more to do with soil than it does with the design.Are there plans available and do 'as builts' match plans for the place?

I called back and he simply didn't pick up whatsoever.Contacted contractor #2 and this time I was given a quote of $1000 to repair this issue with my bathroom, also found out contractor #2 was not licensed which led me to terminate  I contacted contractor #3 to get a quote as well and this quote came out to $6300 due to the bathroom in my condo not being built to Sandy Springs, GA code. 

I'd hate to soil my reputation before I even start so I've slowed down on my aggressiveness with this until I figure this outCurious to see replies

He wants to come on to my property and inspect the trees with his expert and do a soil analysis.
