I’ve lived and invested through them.But the fact that so many smart investors write New Orleans off as having zero appreciation potential — that’s exactly why I think the opportunity exists.This isn’t a Detroit situation where the core economic engine left and never came back.

I’ll add that it’s one of many ways you can gain an edge as an investor.Being a contractor, homebuilder, handyman, structural engineer, appraiser, inspector, accountant, real estate attorney, or banker (as you are) can also give you a unique advantage.

Do not give your traffic ANY reason to leave your website.If they click on your social media, and go to Facebook, and see their messages, likes, comments they get distracted, and Facebook algorithm knows this person just visited a "we buy houses" website, and Facebook now will display all your competitions ads to that prospect, hence giving away your prospects away on a silver platter.

To move forward, I'm in need of recommendations for a reliable surveyor, civil engineer, and architect.Regrettably, I've had a challenging experience in the past, losing both time and money while renovating the old house on the lot due to issues with the contractor.

People   who have done deal   here at bigger pockets   and  at least     have a good standing  in this  platform  should  contact.I have    construction  background and  chemical engineer  by profession.  

I believe this is done through an algorithmic process based on time on market and potentially the previous bids.

Bonus points if you can recommend a general contractor and engineer to estimate repairs.

I dont quite have the advice on the exact financial question your asking, but I'm a civil engineer located in San Antonio.
