If it was permanently attached to a foundation it actually would have been easier.

So I have a good foundation in finding and analyzing deals especially 2 and 4 family duplexes.

General Contrators, Inspectors, Plumping, Electric, Foundation, etc.

It was a little too large and the foundation was off 1/2 inch over 60 ft.

All these properties are total fixers with huge value add componte 1st Duplex I have demoed down down to the existing foundation.

 I am under contract for a flip house, happened fast, in 3 days, and I was still waiting to get a few final inspections . as bad luck would have it, the buyer's home inspector thought something was wrong with the footers and foundation so he called a structural engineer to look at it too. ok fine, but the bad luck is that the structural engineer had questions and called the County building department and happened to get to speak with the guy who was literally going out the door to do my final building inspection.

Hi all,Im viewing an SFR house this afternoon with a slab on grade foundation (basically built on concrete, no basement). 1000 sq ft.Has anybody had any issues with this type of property?

Did they just put fresh carpet over a leaky foundation, or did they actually set you up for a decent chance at success?

The foundation has potential for being a huge expense if there are large cracks, bulging, or signs of major settling.

All that was left was the foundation and a chimney.
