Would anyone happen to know a good contractor that does excavation and surface stabilization. 

Then my sister and brother-in-law decided to move their family (then a kid with one on the way) out of their tiny 680 square-foot house, and into a much larger home, build an apartment in the new basement, and rent out that lower level and also the other tiny house.Good ideas on the surface, but I watched them make mistake after mistake in these decisions, use unreliable family for part of the construction, rent the tiny house to the first tenant that applied for an amount that doesn't even cover the mortgage, borrow money from family they don't even like.And you know what?

I've seen some really clever stuff  leveraged to push content, use smart telemetry to surface what's likely to matter most to individual users. 

Other readers......see how these seller financed deals come to the surface after they are made and how others get involved?????

Solid surface materials can save you money on the front end, but they can damage easily with misuse.

Would think these would be in the $50,000 and $30,000 range depending on your city.Hard surface roads and parking?

Train, Train, Train.You’ll soon discover that the information you’re studying to pass your real estate exam doesn't even scratch the surface of all you need to learn to be a good real estate agent.

All the multifamily that come up for the FHA house hacking strategy in my area seem to still leave me paying about what i would for an apartment after putting a tenant in one unit and living in the other, and its a small area so they do not surface too often, especially good deals.

You can ask the 2nd person why if they ever surface.

That's a lot more expensive and can be 25k-30k. 90% of all basement issues have to do with poor surface water management, so you want to get the exterior grading adjusted and make sure your gutters are working and you are directing the downspout extensions far enough (10ft) away from the foundation to a spot that slopes away further.You are probably talking to the wrong contractors.
