I spoke to three companies yesterday and they looked up soils maps and they believe our cost is going to be somewhere around $20k-$25k, possibly up to $35k if we need a special system.

It depends also on how hard the soil is.

Also soil composition, waterways etc can.

If you are selling farms, then you should know about soil quality, land use, etc.

As stated by others, spend the extra money and have them truck in some extra soil to make it not look like a box in the middle of the property. 

As far as septic, the cost will depend on the soil conditions.

If this is an infill single family parcel in South Philly, chances are the soils are fine and is really a matter of confirming the zoning and ensuring there are no deed restrictions.

Thought I would share my thoughts on the market for the week: a brief, hopefully insightful, dive into real estate and/or financial markets.Today I'm talkin’ the bull vs bear case for real estate in 2024.Today’s Interest Rate: 7.88% (👇 .07% from last week, 30-yr mortgage)Mortgage interest rates remained relatively flat this last week, and, high interest rates (sorry to sound like a broken record) are here to stay.

I have also been looking for investment property in Amherst and was just advised to stay away since I was reminded that many of the properties there are in jeopardy of having major foundation issues due to the "peanut butter" texture of the clay soil of Lake Tonawanda that the houses were built on....I've done a bit of research on the issue as I'm looking for my first and not wanting to get in too deep. 

Will the tenant's health have any bearing in the Sheriff's ability to evict them?
