Check with your local permitting department.  

The Richmond Police Department stated that it found hours of recordings on Arnaiz’s computer.

Make sure and check with the building department for the city that the  property is in.  

What you need is a hold harmless and indemnification agreement, signed of by the police department as the have insurance and financial responsibility for off duty police dogs, they are considered officers too.

Dear Bigger Pockets, I've been pretty thorough in my profile and it seems I have gone some distance toward  outing my inner nerd.

Hope my fellow BP'ers can help, as I am having some issues. 1) given the property being sold as-is and after pulling OPRA report from the city it seems the property has several opened violations/penalties2) I tried speak to the city building department about how I can resolve these violation: " illegal basement apartment" and "no permits for additional unit built in the back of the house" - fines are in hundreds of thousands and have been outstanding for couple of yearsCan you please advise if anyone know anyone who can assist with getting these questions resolved ? 

I would check with Allegheny Valley Bank's Commercial Loan department from what I hear they have something along the lines of what you're looking for.

Anything else the fire department would require. 

If you don't have a written lease from the purchase I'd check out your local and state agencies for advice on what the law is in the state in addition to consulting with an attorney.For example, where I am (St Louis, MO) the city has a "landlord's guide"https://www.stlouis-mo.gov/government/departments/...which includes things like sample applications, information on the eviction process, and citations to the state landlord tenant law.The Attorney General puts out a state guide on Landlord Tenant lawhttps://www.ago.mo.gov/docs/default-source/publica... though an attorney would be the most helpful when it comes to knowing what paper trail you need to create.  

It also has endured some upgrades in the kitchen and window department.
