I later worked for various home improvement companies such as Walker Construction, Unity Builders and others.

I'm lucky to have a dad that's a construction worker that has a little bit experience in this field.

Actually wouldn't have to for hardness, but should for brittleness on old redwood.Don, after repairs and maybe bracing, the whole house, so that it can get a perimeter foundation, so that I can get construction financing in California. 

LOL.. judge just signed my order.. house is 100% covered in vines and blackberries and there is just a tiny path to the front door.. she opens the cat food cans and just chucks them on the little space on the porch.. since she would not answer us I had the cops do a wellness check and they did get her to the door.. you have to hold your breath when you get within 10 feet it.Also I am told the brother took a car apart and put it back together in the basement so supposedly there is a full size car we will have to deal with.. but this is a demo and rebuild new construction...

I have been in the construction business since I was 17.  

I am 59 years old and I have been in the construction business since I was17.  

Welcome,I've been involved in the construction/trade aspects of RE for the past decade.Let me know if you experience issues getting the right guy for the job and I'll see what I can do.My RE experience and knowledge are limited, but my optimism isn't.Best of luck!

- I have never paid 10% closing or near that on any house I have ever purchased), you must have enough money to begin interest only payments, you must have enough money to start construction before you will get any construction money" I am accountant, so I understand numbers pretty well... on a 130K loan you're looking at about 30K out of pocket maybe more...
