The heater is brand new and installed according to the architects design.

I am an (unlicensed) architect with just about 3 years of professional experience that has just made a huge jump into the world of commercial and multi-unit Real Estate Development by working for a small partnership that is interested in my architectural background.

Once you buy the lot and then get an architect to whip up a set of plans, you'll be able to approach the bank for a construction loan.

I have had friends (professionals: architects, artists) who lived in bushwick sharing an apartment for years.

Don't get attached is probably the #1 or #2 thing I see here for us newbie investors...and vets alike.I have called them in the past about similar issues and pretty much know what they will say -- have an architect create a blueprint and put it back to the way it was.

Because I added a 2nd floor to the project I hired an architect to make sure I did it right and got my own permits from the city.

Waiting on architects drawings now to get the addition approved by the city.Acquired a 4plex that we intend on bringing back to its glory days using historic tax credits.

Hi Rohan,Hire a professional renovation designer, or an architect who specializes in rehabs.Especially since you have studios and a one-bedroom, you need someone with multi-family-specific experience.

I'm an architect used to working with commercial contractors maybe residential GC don't have significant markups...What would you do?

The floor plan schematic equals to 3600 sqft max floor space for an RT-4 zoned lot with 3 units total which is what the self-certified architect confirmed himself and ultimately what the zoning allows for. - Purchase price = 173k..
