Hey everyone,We're currently considering a new construction investment property that, according to the listing agent, had a foundation issue that has since been repaired and signed off on from a structural engineer.

Permitting civil engineering, architectural, everything taken care of.

This is the engine that will keep your business running.

Currently i am in college doing my engineering i am in final year now.

I paid to have my architect draw up basic plans and my civil engineer do a preliminary stormwater drainage plan for the new site plan and got bids for the commercial and townhomes.

They need to be competent in finding deals, underwriting deals, running comps, raising money, hiring contractors, managing contractors, and they should have a general understanding of design, architecture, engineering, and the permitting process.
