All buildings should meet life safety codes and be in compliance with codes on smoke and fire detection, fire extinguishers, and carbon monoxide detectors.

I am aware this list should only be used as starting points or "areas of research" towards more detailed and specific DD, but would still very much appreciate if you can let me know whether or not i am missing a significant area of research.The list as it currently stands:Collateral File BPO & exterior condition (as indication of interior)Property insurance up-to-dateTaxes due & Tax liensTaxes & property insurance escrowedNeighborhood crime rate & other neighborhood safety statisticsOwner has all necessary insurance policiesIs owner occupied?

A tenant can invite any inspector inside to determine if they have safe living conditions, like the fire department, health department, building regs, utility company, let them "tag" the place, you're just concerned about your safety!

If you intend to occupy but are prevented due to health and safety issues, that's ok.

My name is JD and I'm 40, hungry, motivated and with no safety net so I have to make this work.

Insurance on them and proper work gear gloves , boots , and safety glasses at minimal.

I was using the "class" system based on quality of tenets/safety of area/stability of area vs. more of a classification of the income/town itself...but I guess I could have said more of a A- minus compared to towns like summit :)

I am asking the seller for credit towards anything safety, structural, or code related so I am only asking for 4000 of that and him to reduce sale price to 91000.

The plan is to buy the Cash-only REO using our LLC, fix the health and safety issues in this home (which will then make it financeable), and then purchase the house with my approved 150k residential loan.
