In either case for what I'm doing, I need an architect for the site plan for the change of use and a land use attorney for the legal aspects and complying with the notifications to the surrounding property owners. 

its a great place to find like minded folks who run the gambit of highly experienced to total beginners and everything in between.. although I would say its slanted towards those starting their journey and many once they get going and have some success contribute less frequently.you have those that are in some sort of sales business so are always marketing themselves or their companies.. through writing blogs and or posting on the site with regularity. 

I will be hosting a meet up at my office in Mesa, Arizona if you want to attend.

So why are all these flipping sites and books having us upgrade bathrooms and kitchens and all sorts of stuff if we won't even recoup the costs of these projects?

I visited sites similar to this, but didn't find information to be sufficient enough.  

There is a plethora of vendors available who handle title, site visits, loss mitigation, legal/foreclosure, property preservation and property sales -- all can be directed via phone/email.
