Rehabbing a Historical House

[Veronica Haniger]

Hello BP!  I've decided on the Dallas/Fort Worth market for some out of state investing.  I connected with a Realtor and a contractor out there and they both went out to check out a fixer I sent them today.  Contractor stated that rehabbing a historical house is NOT a good idea as we'd need approval from the city for each step of the way, adding more time and costs to the rehab budget.  

Two things:

•  I'd like to connect with another contractor to get a second opinion. Anyone know of anyone out there?
• Has anyone out in that area rehabbed a historical home?  What were some of your learnings?  

Thanks in advance!
