LOW Rental Property - BIG Code Violations

[Tomiko Graves]

Hi all!

I have an opportunity to purchase a rental property for 39k that has been condemned because of code violations.  I received an email report of the violations this morning.

My contractor suggests I "have an engineer evaluate everything in that report that mentions structure and have him write instructions.  Then after work gets done, he will inspect.  Then code inspector would inspect..."

Is this good advice and if so, where do I find an engineer??

@Matt R.Thank you! I do have an agent I’ve been working with. I’ll ask her.
