I am an aerospace engineer by trade and am fortunate to love what I do for a living.

Well @Nate Green focusing on Lease Options is good, but Being a Transaction Engineer is better.

I'm new to BP myself.I'm a structural engineer in Boise, working in commercial and residential buildings.

Years ago one of our engineering classmates worked for ATCO in Australia & they built them & he shipped them to Saudi etc.

When I graduated from High School, I got a job offer in my career field (engineering) and I couln't turn it down.

This keeps us within the setbacks and mostly overlapping the structure we're tearing down (limiting the disturbance).A few more thoughts on this whole thread:- My wife put together all these drawings -- she's not an architect, engineer or drafts-person, so there may be issues with the design that aren't obvious to us...that's the type of feedback we're looking for!

I would like to think its worth atleast 55k to 60k when fixed.My fallback plan:I am a Software Engineer and currently living out of state for over a year now for work but this property is in town where i am from and will possibly be returning back at end of this year.

Although I lay my own tile so it is actually cheaper to install tile.For Living and Bedroom either Hardwood Oak or Engineered Laminate if you want to save a few $$$.

My business model wasn't prepared for what happened in 08 so I had to close my investing business and fall back on my engineering degree.

It can be a lot of work with engineering, surveying, etc. to satisfy all the municipal requirements.
