In addition, their obligation is to inspect only “readily accessible, visually observable” systems and components of the home. 

I am not sure how you can build new construction small projects  and make them pencil. and then with 20 unit and more needing affordable housing component NOT ONE permit has been applied for for a 20 an up since the law was in acted.. so the law is there but the free market is not going to participate so there will be no affordable housing unless the City state keep up with low cost bond issues and tax credits for developers. 

I think this could be detrimental to my business and I have given her no reason to be this overly concerned. 

The capex could be on the low side too depending on WHEN the major structural components have been replaced.

Add to that the emotional component and the fact this is typically the largest purchase someone will make and it’s easy to see why people aren’t that price sensitive and why outside/expert help is considered useful.

These people have been turned loose on the masses to the detriment of the public. 

I truly believe our financial education component plays a significant role in this, conveying the moratorium has zero protection to the impact of credit reporting showing past due and accruing amounts, that tenants may DEFER rents which means still due and owing just payable at a later date, AND the impact of a deferred accruing balance and potential for future evictions.

This is an epic fail and our lack of writing offers has been inexcusable and a major detriment to our business.  

The college I attended did a similar project and hired out the development of almost 400 units to a known and respected developer from the area (this could be a critical component... he was known and very well established).

So in your turn-arounds and in any repair fixes, make sure you or your contractor use top quality (not always most expensive) components and quality service (by you or someone else).
