Lehi/Saratoga Springs is booming is well, but probably closer to 20% gains in the last year or two.3) I'd recommend you look at areavibes.com or trulia.com/local for safety information. 

This should ensure a good safety net and keep the project moving along in case you run into any hiccups.4.  

I don't think it causes a safety hazard, it's just that the upper half of the house is no longer approved as a rental so there's no point in having an upstairs kitchen.Thanks again,Matt

Err, Building and Safety Dept.

It has several features which are unsafe as it stands but easy to fix and MUST be fixed for safety reasons. 

It sounds like you have a slight concern for your safety.

Many cities and counties have standards for a variety of things, including anything they view as a safety or healthy hazard.

Pursuant to this law, if a building doesn't have a residential certificate of occupancy, which would require landlords to bring fire and safety codes current, they can't evict tenants from living there.The celebs' building doesn't have the required certificate so they can't be evicted.They owe the landlord $120,000!!!

I've positioned myself defensively and offensively with diversified streams of investment incomes with hopefully enough margin of safety to weather the next crisis whatever the cause.

I would save almost all of this until I have a good safety net.
