There are 5 exit strategies with fire damaged properties:1) Fix & Flip2) Develop3) Assignment of contract4) Restoration & Renovation Job5) Refer out Restoration/Renovation JobThis was why I started getting into this niche, and figured out how to aggregate info on properties that were having fires, real time. 

Give them an honorable mention and link to their site.Not only will this restore faith  the public has of investors, but it will cause people to give more incentive to donate.

We didn't get hit hard but my background is in restoration so I might have an advantage there.Is that an SMS, calling or emailing you're using for the live follow up schedule?

Did they say how they plan to come up with the rest, or did you not bother to go there ;)I had a tenant call for our $1100 a month unit and say she could only afford $1000 a month.

@Alvin SylvainEven in California the landlord is required to make reasonable accommodations and allow the tenant to make modifications at their own expense as long as the restoration back to the original construction will not be an unreasonable expense to the landlord.Ripping out a second floor ramp or elevator will definitely fall into the unreasonable expense to a landlord. 

Gary, assuming your architect or engineer is not overseeing the project - on a rehab of a multi-unit complex like that I would actually look to a GC that does insurance restoration work rather than a remodeling GC.

Lots of talk about raising taxes not restoring them.

I'll repurchase commercial space most likely for use in a mediation business (which I believe to be the future of law) and expand my real estate as I expand that.Dreams beyond that - One day I'm going to build a place for human trafficking victims to hide while their rights are restored. 

You just restored my faith in the BP community.

The compounded effect of this over say 10 years with 10 sets of residents leads to a general beat up feel of a property that is typically 100 years old - hand made millwork, non standard door sizes, lath and plaster walls - all of this very, very expensive to restore or replace.
