My background is in technology - specifically Business Intelligence and Data Engineering but throughout my personal and professional work experience, I've created and automated some pretty powerful and robust workbooks and dashboards (Metrics/KPI reporting) using Excel.

I paid cash for the house, and my goal is to refinance it in the next couple of months.Do you recommend hiring an engineer to evaluate and give a report about the foundation work and submit it to the lender as a proof of the foundation repair?

I spent half of my career as a Mechanical Engineer and the other half in various IT roles (all for major corporations).After looking unsuccessfully for another W2 job for the first month, it became apparent to me that I really didn't want to report to someone else as the "boss" again, so I began exploring real estate investing as an option.

I am a senior mechanical engineering student in the North Jersey/New York City area and am a complete newbie in the real estate investing world.

I am studying computer engineering, but really considering switching to marketing or business management.

We are the investment property provider and property manager of choice for many doctors, cpa’s, ceo’s, coo’s, cfo’s, engineer’s, architects and many other hard working professional people.

I'm currently a mechanical engineer by profession, and am looking to make future real estate investments in the coming years to supplement my income, and secure an early financially secured retirement.

We also opened up the kitchen into the living room by removing walls and using an engineered header beam (aka glue lam).

But these engineers are some of the most professional dealing in RE, ethical and reliable.

An appraiser is not an engineer.
