I don't know anything about home renovation and was wondering if a house like this can be "saved" because it looks like it can be saved lol. I like the structure and interior layout but it needs a lot of work. So my questions are this:
1. To assure the integrity of the structure, what work and inspections would need to be done? Who would i need to hire for these works?
2. What activities can be DIY. My father in law has quiet a bit of experience in flooring and painting. Hes also an electrician and is keen to help us.
3. Would it be possible to add an additional bedroom to this house to turn it into a 4 bedroom?
Thanks

Thanks a building inspector should be able to tell you about any major problems but we need a floor plan with dimensions to clarify options for extra bedrooms ... sometime an extension can be a better option than rearranging existing structures too much but that also involves professional plans and a development application to council and unless you have unlimited time it can be more cost effective to employ a builder if you need any major structural work but having a family electrician and diy painting and flooring can be a great savings but first post a floorplan to clarify teh existing building Which application did you filled out ?
