Hello there I am in the Stockton California area and I am looking into becoming a wholesaler and also a house flipper.

I am currently living in Sacramento Ca and would love to network with folks in or out of the area.Thank you

If it is a great deal like you mentioned it will likely be gone by the time you find and schedule a GC to take a visit.

I live in the Bay Area of California, where I work in tech, particularly in hardware design and manufacturing - and have a huge passion for Virtual and Augmented Reality - it is the next wave of computing - and yes - I'm a bit of a recovering tech geek.

No personal visits (meetings).

But in other parts of the country - CA, TX, WA, FL, MA - where you will find it easier to find lenders. 

The engineers' opinion initially should speak to the severity of the issue.I'd break down an engineering engagement into 2 parts:First would be an initial visit and rendering an opinion on the severity and possible approaches in design to remedy.2nd would be the actual design and cost opinion(s) to remedy.If you're pretty serious about the house, I think if you pay the $250-500 that I think you'd likely need to do the first, that would be a GREAT investment more than likely from what you're describing. 

Hi, I am looking for a smaller architect firm in the Richmond, CA area.

I was curious if anyone here knows or has good luck with getting a second mortgage on a primary residence in the state of California?

Citibank caps ALL California second mortgages to $300k (over-levereged here maybe?)
