My father owns a house in good location in a small town that has been empty for a few years. He isn't keen on selling it and we are now toying with the idea of refurbishing the house before renting it out.
Should I first be looking to get an engineer to carry out a structural survey or should I get in contact with architect to get their view on what they would do with the house?
My own train of thought is to engage with one of the above to sound out my own ideas and get their ideas/find any defects with the property. Once I have this I would get in contact with a few general contractors to get quotes to get an idea on what it would cost.
Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
