Additionally, these companies don't have fancy uniforms, huge logo plastered trucks, or a brick and mortar building.

@Steve Babiak,@Manolo D.if the windows are replaced i believe they are recommended to follow the EPA RRP laws. but as i said, in NJ a window replacement does not trigger a permit, it is considered Ordinary Maintenance under the UCC ( Uniform Construction Code ) which is what new jerseys follows and adopts the New Jersey version of the ICC Building and Residential codes, along with other codes. but every States code is different. there are two other factors to look at - is the place occupied with any children under 6 ?

@Manuel Gonzalez :  That's a good idea to address the uniformity of the windows (tin foil).  

Got tired of dealing with code enforcement and the uniforms calling me. 3) Mailing to absentee landlords.

I'm sure there is some part of the uniform code of military justice that could be brought into play, but you would have to talk to a military lawyer about that.

I'm open to discussions to see if there is something that could be worked out.I see your uniform. 

I like the small HOAs that provide a little bit of uniformity (no pink houses, please) and an extra set of eyes when the property is not being kept up (garbage left out, lawn unkempt).  

This is per the OCC regulations.www.occ.treas.gov/ftp/bulletin/2005-6a.pdfAlso see Title XI of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA); Amendment to FIRREA effective June 7, 1994; Interagency Appraisal and Evaluation Guidelines (October 7, 1994); Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP)I haven't seen or heard of any changes from the current policy.

Unlike say track houses in San Jose where value is much more uniform.

Federal law is probably more uniformly adjudicated within Ohio but I don't know that for a fact.For the reasons above, I strongly urge you to NOT use any attorney who does not practice regularly in Franklin County (or whatever county you have real estate in) and who does not regularly practice (involved at least weekly, if not daily) landlord-tenant law.
