I did study Mechanical Engineering many years ago and have some sense of how things come together and my wife has done quite a few interior design projects but no direct interactions with subs, only GCs.

Invested $5,000 with engineering firm to complete re-plat to market as individual market townhomes with a market value of $235,000 each.

Thats a bit of a broad question because there are a few diff calculations involved but...Spread sheetstake the purchase price write it downtake the repair costs...write it downgross rental income after its repaired...write it downholding costs...write em down ARV write it downConsider how much its going to cost you to buy, fix, and hold...cross reference that to how much you want to pull out in a mortgage afterwards. consider what interest rate you're going to pay.example purchase price - 100krepairs - 50k holding costs (3 mo) - 2k gross rents after repair -1800ARV - 225k say you pull out 70% of the Arv your getting $157.5k so basically cost you next to nothing to docalculate your monthly mortgage payment, all expenses and operating cost say that comes to 1400. try to reverse engineer it, practice on properties you find on the market that need work. get familiar with these types of calculations 

I was an engineer when I started investing and utilized the BRRRR strategy to grow my portfolio. 

It is loaded with companies bringing in their engineers to support government projects.

Seriously, I would invest in getting a respectable civil engineer to provide you with a written report regarding the foundation's stability, etc. 

My girlfriend is interested in making the transition to real estate and has been brought on board with her engineering/project management experience. 

Hi All, I am a 23 year old college graduate with a degree in civil engineering.

My agent is looking for a professional structural engineer and he hopes an engineer could write a statement saying that grading plus new sealed walls will be the solution.
