At this point I have the equity la plays as well as some good cashflow plays due to buying lucky but I am seeking some lifestyle engineering plays so cash flow deals are more appealing.  

My background is in Civil Engineering working on land development and transportation projects.  

@James BrownI presume your electricity comes mostly from Mayo (hydro-electric) so rates would be much better than in the east where it is/was all diesel generated.

My passion for real estate led me to abandon my previous career as an engineer and pursue a career as full time real estate investor.

The problem i had is that my GC hired a foundation company which is not reputable and did not do the foundation work with an engineering evaluation. so i don't have the scope of work done on the foundation.

If you enter "turnkey companies" in the BP search engine you should get plenty of responses. 

I do have a regular day job, electrical engineer.

If my memory serves me right that's Engine company 151 first due - will be happy to stop by and meet in person and get all paperwork done on my way through the city to see my parents out on Long Island .

My limited experience is only in construction inspections when I worked for engineering firms.

Typical issues will be zoning, setbacks, and utility easements (I am civil engineer and work with this stuff everyday; this step is very important).
