This isn't a standard rule as there are exceptions but in my experience it could be a deal breaker.

Because he was raising a claim to the title to the property the eviction court held it did not have jurisdiction over the subject matter and advised the parties to take it to Circuit Court. 

That's pretty rich, but if your business plan supports those cost of funds then it doesn't mean it's a deal breaker.

For example, you gut a kitchen to the studs, well now all electric has to be to current code so that means adding receptacles and GFCI where required, and "uh0oh" the breaker box is out of code, since you had to add those new lines, whose wires go into the panel, now you have to upgrade the entire panel to current code.
