Question for Atlanta Builders. Need help!
Hi BP! Hope everyone is having a great day so far in Atlanta. I have a question regarding a peice of property I am looking to pick up. The home is in Dekalb Co and is a tear down. It's a double lot but there's an issue because there is a small stream flowing through the back of the property. I know that in order for this deal to be worth while at all I would have to get a stream variance. I've never gone through this before and I am curious to see if obtaining the variance would be a headache or pretty straight forward. A survey was recently conducted by the owner and it's come back that the home is in no way a part of a flood zone. But should I still be worried about this stream situation. Any idea on how long it may take to obtain one and what cost would it be to in fact try to obtain one.
Any insight you have would be great folks. Thanks a lot!
