Grandview MO- city inspections for rental properties

[Laura Williams]

Hi! 

Have a question for landlords and property managers in Grandview MO.  Do you or most landlords comply with the city ordinance to get their properties inspected & registered by the city? What does the inspection process involve? What happens if you don't do it? Does or can the city do anything to you if you don't?

Asking for a friend who was told by his PM (reputable) to ignore it and that most investors don't bother to get their Grandview properties inspected/registered with the city. 

Thanks in advance for your thoughts
