St Paul TISH Report Required Fixes?

[Joe Schaak]

Twin Cities Investors, am I required to fix all items called out on the Truth In Housing report? I have a property that can be a quick cosmetic turn. There are some plumbing issues that don't meet today's codes. I would like to replace bath fixtures, vanities, and repair a couple "duct taped" drains as well. Can the inspector require me to fix everything?!

I should qualify- Here, You have to remedy TISH where it says required fixes and I have to believe it's so in St Paul.  You don't have to fix non essentials like decaying windows, out of level floors etc but I can't believe required problems don't have to be addressed. That doesn't make sense.  What if the inspector calls out a backdrafting water heater where co2 is getting pushed back into the home?  St. Paul doesn't require that to be fixed?  I challenge that.  Where it says required repair, that has to be fixed and appears in a separate section.  If you don't have those, you are ok to go.
