We're able to crank out mods regardless of weather, have all of our inspections scheduled like clockwork, and control the timing of production with the site work. 

I've never bought the property from a long distance, I always go and look/inspect/feel.

Use and Occupancy - In the city of phila its called an L&I Cert (License and Inspections) Its just a cert you buy online for 130 bucks that discloses any violations

They want the heating element to be inspected however we know it is working properly and the main heat/AC for their unit is the mini split, not the thermostat.

That’s a big plus for anyone trying to keep consistent cash flow.But there are cons too: extra paperwork, annual inspections, and generally a bit more red tape.

I have a tenant who I believe to be on some type of heavy drug like herion, or meth ...I recently inspected the property it was full of garbage everywhere some hording, it's just trashed. 

At some point they are going to do an inspection.

My list includes - last 2 years employment history and current employment [2 paystubs], criminal checks, eviction checks, No Pets, No smoking, tenant pays utilities, maintains landscape, no subleasing, bring own washer & dryer, 1 month security deposit and transfer of utilities before moving in, rental insurance, all occupants will be on lease, notice period of 2 months for termination, tenant references, No cosigners, no painting walls, late fee notice, any hoa fines should be paid by tenant, inspection of property at 3, 9 and 12 months.Please let me know if I am missing anything.3.

This past week, I feel like I spent more time on the real estate than the restaurants (city inspections, building permits, managing a construction crew, late rent from tenants, etc. etc. etc). 

There is plenty on the market where you will get full inspection rights.
