... i have this bright idea (not in the least bit novel but)... i want to purchase a delapidated property and rehab it to my specifications instead of purchasing a new home with all the bells and whistles! i figure the home search & buying process is stressful enough when you've got to consider location, and amenities, and features, and layout, and curb appeal...blah blah blah. some of which you may have to compromise or settle upon instead of getting what you really want. not to mention the paperwork and logistics side of actually aqcuiring the home and the overwhelming fact that i'm poor :\ so, i figure, why not just concentrate on finding a "dump" in a location i really want and remodel the damn thing so i can have everything i want for half the price of getting an after-market home. i think i'd rather have the stress of dealing with the contractors and knowing imma get what i want than the formerly mentioned stressed.
i say all that to ask you guys... how the hell do i find/choose an architect, planner, contractor, and inspector?!?!? i mean... how the hell should i know? apparently you're suppose to rely on a reference... you know... this person knows that person that did a job back when. BUT, i don't know anybody that knows anybody. at least i don't think :\ or... do y'all?
