Another member is a structural & civil engineer, with his own company.

Something simple shouldn't have anything that takes long, unless you're pulling permits and the city falls asleep on you.Otherwise, in a large scale with additions, id say meeting with engineers/architects/builders to plan, implement, permit, and complete additions such as a second story, new master suite, etc.

@Scott WilkonsonI am a software engineer and have done this several times.

I am majoring in mechanical engineering and I am also involved with an on campus real estate club.

The short version of how I got here is that I have a small development team (we've worked on other, smaller projects together) of an architect, engineer, general contractor (that builds large hotels and retirement developments), and me for sales and analysis and general quarterbacking.

If I did bring someone, would a contractor be able to have that insight, or would I need to utilize a structural engineer?

This is a reverse engineered way to say learn the 1% rule - which isn’t perfect but it is good.

My name is Patrick, a new investor and I am a Merchant Mariner by occupation who works on cable ships as an engineer.

One caveat has learned with our $400,000 raised so far with MSB.AI is SEC  allows us to take direct Accredited investors for larger amounts directly and the Start Engine is ok with this.

Gantt charts are very popular with engineers and scientists (I am both) to manage serious projects that includes people,m money costs, deadlines, systems, resources, timelines and  such.
