The assessment may include a civil engineer looking at the feasibility to gravity feed sewer or need for grinder pumps or a more costly pump station, assessing soil types for building suitability, wetland restrictions or conservation area requirements that may affect the buildable area, assessing zoning and municipality temperament for zoning changes, and maybe at an additional cost a soil test for onsite septic if sewer proves to be unavailable or too costly.

I am highly motivated invdividual with full time job as Network Engineer, looking for an experienced people who wants to create a diverse portfolio.Never quite Never fear.

All the inspection reports I have seen have so much disclaimers and waivers on both the liability and scope and extra verbage to recommend hiring a professional plumber, professional electrician, professional structural engineer etc...for each sub section to qualify their findings.Its a quick visual inspection. 

@John HalliganLove the gunslinger mentality but you need some eyes on this thing amigo.I imagine the Zestimate is so high because the algorithm is pulling comps in a quarter or half mile radius thus those Shaker homes are pulling it up.I am going to assume this house is beat to hell and even if it wasn't it wouldn't be worth 66k.

I am a tech nerd and work as an electronic technician but trained as an engineer.

I know in California we do.You can alway get a engineer soil survey.

@Jered Sturm My properties are up in the Marietta area, and I'm getting my PhD in nuclear engineering (just slightly different from real estate, I know).

Many software engineers make $100k a year straight out of school.  

The option consideration funds fixing the problem and the option is for execution of a contract with price and terms that reflect the value added plus profit for engineering.

And I have been working as an engineer for the past 10 years.Are there any options for me to do the cash out with no employment?
