Hello, I am wondering if any real estate attorneys can please shed light on whether my current job status would qualify me as a "real estate professional".Specifically, my full-time job in which I work more than 750 hours a year is as a mechanical engineer for a engineering consulting company.

Gen Z may be leading a revival in the trades. 1) In an aging population, the median age of electricians, mechanics, and plumbers is falling. 2) Vocational school enrollment is growing faster than at 4-year colleges.More young folks are considering the trades as a career.

Also, what's stopping him from going to another of my houses and installing another fence and then putting a mechanics lean on the property?

I ran from a mechanical room to the bathrooms through a false beam.

By end we re-did the entire mechanical system, EVERYTHING, had brought in structural engineers for the complete rebuild of the 2nd story, our $35k reno went too almost $80k, it was THE nightmare flip.

I've always loved and learned about houses, from mechanicals to design, and I'm ready to work. 

Servicing the mechanical units goes a longgg way.. 

I am however handy, I have a degree in biology and I do have a trade skill set in automotive mechanics, and I am always willing to return the favor for anyone pointing me in the right direction.

. - i like to think I’m pretty handy, I’m am a retired mechanical engineer.

If you are not touching mechanicals then there won't be an inspection until you go to sell or refi to put a renter in there.
