You can put the number into a search engine and sometimes it will tell you if it's a solicitation.

I used to be an engineer before going full time in real estate a few years ago and those two STRs net me more than my salary was!

They found it out, andI had to go to the planning board and zoning board, hire an engineer and architect to make the fourth unit legal.In my opinion, the realtor should have verified the zoning, and if you used bank financing, it's pretty rare for the bank to miss it as well.You are probably going to have to hire an architect to draw plans and to get it approved as a triplex.I wish you luck.

If.a general inspector sees something of concern they will then recommend a structural engineer review the property. 

I’ve even had structural engineers say that a deck or other structure should have fallen down as well, according to their calculations.

I think it will also high effect search engine rankings. 

I'm Apa (25) and I work in Orange County, California as a Research Engineer.

Definitely get the structural engineer to look at the joists & support beams to see what's up with the uneven floors.

My hunch is that's $85K for the garage itself before plans, permits, engineering, sewer line, electrical panel, etc. 

An engineering backed modeling study might be good for this type of property.
