I quit my day Engineering day job 3 yrs ago via buying enough rentals. 

Purchase price: $100,000 Cash invested: $20,000 A foreclosure house my family purchased to house hack while I attended Texas A&M for my undergrad in Mechanical Engineering, I was a present landlord throughout college, now I'm a out of town landlord as my job took me to Houston.

@Elise Hazzard My 9-5 is in mechanical engineering, so not much cross-over there unfortunately. 

For this situation I would consider reverse engineering similar sold properties.

We learned to have the architect, engineer, and planner to all get together during the due diligence to speed up the process and not have a long hold time of no construction.

I graduate in May and I will be relocating to Houston Texas to work as a Software Engineering Consultant.

Your best bet is to contact the specific town engineers, assessors office, or zoning office (could be any of those depending on the municipality) of the town a property is in and ask them if what you are looking to do is possible and what the process would be for doing so. 

WE were at a pre submission meeting yesterday.so you have the city engineer then public works  the private utl providers land use.. etc etc.. it takes a village to move these things along :)

I'm a 22-year-old college student, majoring in Civil Engineering Architecture.

My name is Dillan Wilson and I'm a freshman at the University of Massachusetts Amherst studying mechanical engineering.
