Thank you for the reply and for the helpful information. I have gotten a couple other replies directly on e-mail so I am starting to put a good base together. As far as finding someone to complete the survey I do have a couple of names already and that is the second time that Rudy Christian has been recommended to me. I wouldn't have to worry so much about the transportation cost since the current barn site is less than two miles from where I plan to build. I do realize there are more obstacles to overcome than distance though. I have also located two crews in the area that have experience with relocating a barn. I was fortunate enough to see the finished product on a project that was finished a little over a year ago. The building was not converted into a residence but the guys that handled it came highly recommended. I am not sure if this is the type of project that can use a couple of different groups to get the job done or if it should be streamlined from start to finish with a specific individual or company. Also who do you talk to that can verify the structural integrity of the building to satisfy code officials. Our company has a good relationship with the local code official but I have not contacted him yet to see what he needs to approve the structure. Again thank you for your reply and your time.
